I know there's a million and one css fps threads on the internet, but I really want to play this fricken game. I have an Intel Celeron Processor which runs at 2.4 ghz, 1.24 Gb of RAM, and an Nvidia GeForce 5200. If I go to the nvidia control panel and put the slider to performance instead of quality I get 80 fps on the stress test and only around 25 fps when I play online, even with everything on low settings and a huge fps config. If I leave the control panel on default settings I get around 40 fps on the stress test and still about 20-25 online. Please help me!!!!

P.S. Don't tell me how bad my computer is, I already know. Some people can't afford to go spend an arm and a leg just to play a video game.

I have a link here:

If you use caseys config, you should get good fps.

I had the same computer, vbasically, lemme guess, Dell Deminsion 2400?

It is always going to be nearly unplayable unless you a)upgrade or b)deal wiht the 20fps.

Other than Casey's Config try this: http://counterstrikestrats.com/speed-up-pc.asp

While I agree (duh) with nearly everything on that list, I would go with opera, if you like it better, because it is faster than even the latest version of Firefox, even with Dial up!
