im new here i would like to know some system requirements before i buy counter strike source like how many mb's should your video card have 128 or 64

hi

welcome

id say the min. would be 256mb of ram, 64mb of video, i would advise you to atleast have 512mb of ram to run source and at least 128mb video card if you dont have at least what i advised id say upgrade your computer, if not you'll have some serious promblems.

well i have all of the other stuff except 128 all i have is 64

you could run it but with no eye candy and you will have some lagg promblems, if i was you i would go buy a $100 video card and buy the game.

a 256mb video card will help a lot and you could get a cheap one for about$100 to $150,

what type of video card slots do u have?
what kind and speed of proccesser do u have?

I would go so far as to say that the recommended system requirements should be the minimum requirements, especially for online play.

You should be alright as long as you are not expecting a lot graphically.

Yep, and a video card upgrade would take care of 90% of that. I'd also bump the memory to a gig but that's just me:D

(I actually have 2GB of ram)
