post your results! i wanna see what a 6800 or x800 can do with this game! i played with 31 bots and my fps went down all the way to 11fps in some spots with my settings and not the recommended.

specs:
P4 3.0E
768 dual channel pc3200
radeon 9800 pro - stock
audigy 2 zs
catalyst 4.9

suggested setting:
trilenear
no AA
reflect world
1024x768
results: 102.75 FPS

my setting:
8x Anistropic
4x AA
reflect all
1024x768
results: 70.90 FPS

Overall I think the graphics are nice. nice use of bump mapping and shaders. compared to Far Cry, its up there. Far Cry is just more lush with outdoor enviroments. O and the people in CS:S arent shiny like they put on to much sunblock.

Where is the stress test located?

Destrox

Its located with the retail package that you buy...

Or in this case I'd assume did not buy since he has bots and only the warez version has that. :P (Yes only the warez does.)

The stress test is not a accurate test though, since online has many other factors that will either lower or increase your gameplay. Lag, Choke, # of players, phyics that constantly change, etc etc

yes i did download it destrox.. you caught me! im just using it to benchmark my system to see how it runs the source engine and tryout the new cs is also. so far i like it! dont worry, i do plan to buy the game. it really is a game worth buying! plus, ive bought all the last major games anyway

so i guess not a lot of people will be able to run this test..

saut

That sounds stupid. Why would you have to buy a game in order to see how well it will run?

Xepidemic

no no saut, i downloaded it but didnt actually pay for it "try before you buy"

Destrox

It is just somthing that came part of the game, since technically CSS is still in beta stages whether Valve wants to admit this or not.
