HAHAHAHA, a very good point. But how much AA and AF do you have enabled? HDR? What resolution?

running it at x16 and x8 it still plays perfectly fine at CS:S.....and to be honest, if you are just looking for something to hold you over until DX10 cards this coming Spring, why blow a whole bunch of money....either save for a DX10 card, or take advantage of the new technology and buy a DX9 card when the prices bottom out

thanks alot guys for the suggestions. I am gonna wait until the dx10 cards come out and snag a high end dx9 9 card on the cheap. I am happy with the 6800gs for right now it does everything I ask it to and gives me ~75 fps on average in CSS. I just wish they made more cards like this little sucker!

I wish they made a card that made me good at CS:S
