css is cpu limited unless you hit aa/af and massive res' combined.

my 7600gt pours out over 100fps on servers with every detail at max at 12x10 when combined with a pentium d at 4.6ghz but my x1900xtx boots out 230 with an x2, so as you can see most high end stuff results in insane fps counts.

7600gt or x1800gto should do the trick.

how come my x2 4800 and my x1900xt get a range of 60fps to 140 fps with every setting on max apart from AA, yet an x800 can get well over 100, are we talking about in game or in the cs source test because i get 207 fps in the test

tried playing on a decent server?

and why you would play with hdr on beats me, all it does is blind you when you least need it.

Why would you play a game where the gun wont stay still when you fire it, where 1 bullet can end your game and have you staring at the screen for 5 minutes waiting for another go. Those silly silly people :p

Operation wolf > CSS :cool:

I imagine you are playing in a higher resolution.

That isnt the point mate. You have just told the guy that he would be able to play with max settings when its not true ;)

Edit :

Let me see your 100 fps on that map then plz :eek:
