Video Cards!

Im still running a ti4200, bought just under a year ago, and it runs everything that is out, just fine... i wont upgrade till doom3, or hl2 hits, around the end of the year.

BTW... if you want a really solid card... ti4200 wise, look at gainward golden sample ti4200... get the 128mb version, some people recommend the 64mb version, cuz it runs at a high clock speed, but alot of currents games, and all their textures can use the extra 64mb...

i have a radeon 8500 with a PIII-1gb and 640mb ram and it still lags when playing counter strike even when vsyn is off, and yes it is the latest driver, what should i do&#33;&#33;

Counter Strike shouldnt lag much under those settings, hardware wise.

Maybe its your internet connection? I assume your on cable/dsl? If not, what are you on... if its cable, and your lagging, make sure you have klite, and another apps that use alot of your bandwith, off when you play, to dedicate your bandwith to the game. I shut off klite, emule, bittorrent, every time I play CS... [/b][/quote]
yea thanks for replying, my fps is btw 20-50 during action, which i consider quite low for my card.
and i usually have nothing running when playing cs, so i dont know, i played other games fine with absolutely
reasonable frame rate except cs, i understand there is a code i can used in console to boost frame rate right?

my Video Card is under minumun Requierments too
I have a TNT2, but the game works fine.
On my birthday, I am getting my computer upgraded

these commands should be typed in the console...

fp_max 100
cl_updaterate 80
cl_cmdrate 80
rate 20000

if u get alot of choke or loss, in ur graph, after typing net_graph 3, drop the cl rates to 60
