Yes, but are you getting the AA and AF extras turned on? I do not think so. And the 8500 cards were not too efficient with AA on. With a 9500 pro you will not see a difference in frame rate on CS at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest ZDamage December 31, 2002 Share Guest ZDamage Guests December 31, 2002 Excellent Gond. Make sure you D/L DirectX9 (do a system back up with that WinXP restore utility thing first) and after that, then d/l and install the new Catalyst 3.0 drivers for your card. You are now fully DirectX9 compliant, you are one of the only ones in the community to be. Then try out some DX9 demo's. If you need help tweaking, let me know. =) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrX December 31, 2002 Share mrX GC Alumni December 31, 2002 New comp: Dell 8250 P4 2.4ghz 512 mb pc1066 rdram Nvidia Geforce4 Ti 4200 64mb Soundblaster Audigy Gamer 120 gb 7200 rpm WD HD 3D benchmark: 11570 Old comp: Self built - ECS K7S5A AMD Athlon 1.4 ghz 512 mb sdram Nvidia Geforce2 mx400 64mb Soundblaster Live! 40 gb 7200 rpm WD HD 3D benchmark: 2393 I had posted the above in Mmmm private forums when I got the new one, so just cut and pasted here. Monitors are both 17" and mice are both versions of MS Intellimouse Explorer Optical. Gotta say the best thing for playing CS has to be the Audigy; sound is just so much better thru it; even on a cheapo labtech headset. Both graphics cards put out a smooth 100 fps. Using a linksys cable/dsl router (NR401) to allow both to play at same time. If anyone could explain benchmark scores in layman's terms, it'd be appreciated.

Guest ZDamage December 31, 2002 Share Guest ZDamage Guests December 31, 2002 yeah, but none of you are using AA and AF. run that one your nvidia cards and you will probably see a 40-70% in frame rate loss. Older cards, especially the GF cards are terrible with it. So far, gond has the card to run it with amazing results in fps and IQ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrX December 31, 2002 Share mrX GC Alumni December 31, 2002 Just ran AA at 4x and AF at 8x and the FPS on the ti4200 stayed at 98-99 using cl_showfps 1 and net_graph 5. Am I missing something?? Image quality was improved, and it flowed smoothly. I dunno. Could it be that it'll work if you have the processing power on the computer? Tested the old comp (GF2 mx400) and it did drop FPS to 50-60. EDIT: tried it with BF1942......now I see a difference Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With CS, it doens't tax the system so much. The IQ of the GF4 cardw with AF and AA isn't too great either. The AA on the Radeon 8500 cards is ok but not too great. but the AF is amazing. Best way to go is with the new Radeon 9500 Pro card and above. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gond January 1, 2003 Share Gond Member January 1, 2003 I gave quite a bit of thought to the 3.06 but decided it was not worth the extra 800 bucks...thats why I went with the 2.4...in 6 months I'll probaby be able to build a 3.06 for a grand...assuming the 2.4 is that out of date Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On another note, I'm with Gond, went 2.4 b/c price differences b/w 2.66 and 3.06 were too much when I just needed mainly an office computer and to be able to play CS.
