Lemme compare 3 systems that either I or friends own and their CS:S FPS
1.
Nvidia 6800 gt
Intel 630 3.0
1 GB RAM
FPS: 70
2.
Nvidia 6800
Intel 650 3.2 OC to 3.6 via Water
2 GB RAM
FPS: 80
3.
Nvida ti 4400
Intel 2.6
1 GB ram
FPS: 80 // OK NOW SERIOUSLY What the...?
4.
Ati 9800 pro
Amd 2.4
1 GB Ram
FPS: 157 //This is where I decided something fishy is going on with the programming
Would anyone agree that Half Life: 2/ Cs:S has skewwed Direct X 9 programming?
Note: Ti4400 runs in DX8
