CS Source uses the new source engine now, which is the same as TF2, L4D and DOD Source. It is much more CPU heavy and more GPU reliant as well. Overall it is more demanding.

I doubt my old s939 setup or my old P4 2.8HT and 9250se (yes, i owned that card too) could even run this game now.
Yeah I meant CS: Source, with a Pentium 4...at 3.2 GHZ :eek:

I don't know if it was updated recently as I haven't played in years but I used to run CS Source in my P4 3.2 GHZ and X800 at high settings well.

yea same here, but years ago i do remember being unhappy about the performance of cs source...it was the cpu that was holding me back.

and yea now that someone mentioned it, cs has the tf2 engine, even more hungry lol:) recently i did try to get portal to run on a p4d. it was awful.... pentium 4 is useless.
