700mhz enough to run css deticated server?

[SonicIce]

does a deticated server need the requirmenets to play the game? what kind of hardware (ram, cpu, videocard, whatever else matters) would i need to run a css server with 8 people? (for a lan party, no internet players)

It will run it, just dont expect a tick rate of 100 or anything

Dedicated servers do not need good graphic card at all

 

[RadiclDreamer]

At least 256mb ram, preferably 512

I think it would run, not super fast, but it would be playable. Most of the extremely low-latency servers I've seen are dual opteron 252 4 GB RAM and such, so I wouldn't get too hopeful. Those are running quite a few more people though and over large distances., If you keep it pretty local, you should be good.

oh sorry i forgot to mention this is just for a LAN.

would an athlon 2200 with 768mb p2100 handle 8 players?

how do i set a high tick rate like 100? or can someone just give me a list of useful console commands?

yes, on a LAN that could probably handle 10 or 12

how do i change the tickrate? (what exactly is tickrate anyway)

sys_ticrate


generally essential variable controlling resources dedicated to server performance.

common numbers are:

33, 66, and then some.
