yay! my new machine finally showed up today! The last machine I bought was 7 or 8 years ago, and it was pretty crappy. I hadn't played CS before, and didn't until a few years later, after getting bored playing MOH, lol. Its specs were:
p4 1.8Ghz
1gb ram
radeon 9550 SE GFX card
100GB of HDD space (over three drives, lol)
all in a tiny tiny case.
It started giving me the shits a couple of years ago, and due to USB port failures, it would drop out random hard drives, and the mouse would disconnect randomly by the end. My laptop is also failing, and as I do web development from home, I decided I needed a much stabler machine to work on, before all the site backups were lost, and I couldn't update them anymore.
So I bought a new machine
This ones:
Case: 1 x ThermalTake M9 Midi-Tower Case - 430W PSU
Motherboard: 1 x ASUS P5KPL-CM Motherboard
LGA775, G31, 1333FSB, 2xDDR2-800, PCI-Ex16, 4xSATA-II, GigLAN, 8Chl, VGA, Firewire, mATX
CPUs | Processor: 1 x Core 2 Quad Q9400 (2.66GHz) - LGA775, 6MB Cache, 1333FSB
Memory - RAM: 1 x 4096MB (2 x 2048MB) PC2-6400 800MHz DDR2 RAM (Dual Channel)
Hard Drives - Internal: 1 x 1000GB 7200rpm Serial ATA-II-300 HDD
1 x IDE connected 40GB HDD
Video Card: 1 x Gigabyte GeForce 9800GT - 1GB DDR3
256-bit, 2x DVI, HDTV - PCI-Ex16 v2.0 (700MHz, 1.8GHz) - OC Edition
Keyboard: 1 x Logitech G15 Gaming Keyboard (Refresh) (Keyboard Only)
Mice: 1 x Logitech G5 Laser Mouse 2007
Operating System: 1 x Windows XP Home Edition (32-Bit Inc. SP3) ( I am too paranoid about vista, even now)
Also have a 22" samsung widescreen LCD monitor and some crappy DVD burner.
I was getting 9 - 12 FPS in GG, and now am getting three figures
(Though will drop to 80 ish in a big server when all the action is happening.) Still got to tweak and tune all the gear, especially the g5 and g15.
I was starting up windows, and getting a browser open in 11 minutes and 34 seconds on the old machine, this one took 1 minute and 16 seconds, lol. (though its all uber fresh)
So I was wondering, what do you guys have as settings and macros for the g15 or g5? going to play with them over the next few days
Cheers
