I have a Pentium 3 700Mhz computer next to me using a TNT2 M64 video card.

I'm gonna pop in a hard drive that has XP Pro on it (it's a server atm), I'm gonna test the CS:S beta on it.

If it succeeds, ANYONE can run CS:S. :p
 
Let's take guesses on FPS in the dome room in Dust :D

I say about 15FPS or so.
 
Most people actually bought CZ just to play it... People are so impatient that they put down money to get it early hehe... I bought an ATI card with the voucher because my other one broke so I didn't choose it just because it had the voucher, it was just a bonus :)

Seems like everyone has the beta. In some wrong way or another.

Yah, luckily I can play legit. I already bought CZ.
 
Well after 6 years of waiting, I hardly think £15.00 is going to break the bank to have a couple of weeks enjoyment. Whats that?... about 6 pints at your local? (just about cover one night)

If you didn't have a new card then your comments will have probably have been different. Like I said, only £15.00 but yet so much enjoyment :)
 
Well, I got CS:S non-legit but its Version 1 and doesn't work.

The end of civilisation is averted.
 
a few weeks enjoyment? Ive been playing CS for 4 years.... plan pn playing for another 4.. ahah! YAYA!
 
Where do I go to start playing CS: S? I just bought CS: CZ.

Put the CD key in Steam...unless you bought it off Steam.

Then just wait for the preload...you can't play until Wednesday.

Do you have your own Cyber Café or what? OR did you pay Gabe some donuts? *No offence Gabe* ;)

I deliver pizzas to Valve so I stay there a lot...

;)

I share a cafe account. :)

PS. The quote in your sig...so true. At first, I didn't know what HDR was, but now I do. :bounce:
 
Yeah thought it was quite funny :) Get back to your computer now :thumbs: I wonder how XP will behave on a 700mhz. Isn't that below minimum-specs?

No, it works fine...

EDIT: CS works fine...we've done it before...now to test CS:S. :p
 
OK, here we go...

System
Pentium III 700Mhz @ 845Mhz
512MB SDRAM PC100
10GB 5200RPM
Maxigamer Couger TNT2 M64 32MB Video Card
Windows XP SP 2
Latest nVidia drivers

The moment of truth:

FPS: (I'm waiting for it...) 1-2 FPS

Load times are same as my system...(see sig).

Well, there you have it...you need a better card than what my old computer has ;) Plays CS though!

Menu goes at 100fps though!
