System Specs

trading in my 9800pro 256mb

well guys, all i wanted was a machine that could run cs w/ 100 fps...and i've spent over 800 dollars trying to achieve that.

my system specs are in my sig, and all i get is around 70 fps in CS, now i know it's a common problem w/ radeon cards...but it seems a little excessive.

knowing that all i want is a card that will get 100 in cs, and be able to handle cz and cs:source, what card would u recommend i get?

i can spend up to around 300 dollars

Wow..

100 FPS = Better Accuracy. It's the inferiority of the gaming engine...

it's true, cs has a bad physics engine that is based on your fps. meaning if u have 100 fps your crosshairs and recoil will go down a lot quicker, your nades will fly slightly faster, your bullets will hit your enemy first if u both shoot at the same time...

in fact u even turn faster w/ 100 fps, not that that can't be adjusted w/ mouse sensitivity ne ways.

it may just be me measuring my e-dick...but friends who have a lot worse of systems get much better fps than me...

i play sof2 as well...i get 85 constant because of vsync, w/out it i get 125 w/ drops down to 114.
