leadtek 6600gt for HL2 CS:S

yeah but the 6800GT is over twice as fast as a 6600GT, everything except for the clockspeeds are half of what the 6800GT has to offer (twice the pipelines, memory interface, vram...). The X800 will play it beautifully.
 
I agree witht he X800, and there are alot of good deals lately on them, with that id recommend the newest catalyst drivers or omega drivers
 
Well I didn't personally recommend the X800Pro, but the X800, only due to price. Fortunately they're almost the same card except the X800Pro is clocked a lot higher. You can simply overclock you X800 to the level though if you buy one with a good heatsink *don't buy the Sapphire ones, nice cards/lousey heatsinks usually*
 
if your looking to overclock, get sapphire cards and artic cooling VGA heatsinks to replace sapphires' bad heatsinks
 
just had a friend tell me that he is diong fine in hl2 with a leadtec 6600 gt... so im prolly gonna do that :-P
 
The 6600GT works fine in the Source engine. While, yes, ATi is supposedly optimized for the Source Engine, you're not going to find much of a difference between comparable ATi and nVidia cards.

Maxed out the X800 Pro runs CS:S at absolute full settings at like 52 FPS. Perfectly acceptable.

are you sure, it should get better than that :s
 
oh yeah well my 64 meg intel integrated video can run about 10 fps on medium settings........on hl2... and it goes faster if i look at the ground..
 
intergrated graphics aint supposed ot be good, do you think that extreme, makes then sound good?, an ati radeon 7000 with 1 pixel pipeline would do better than intel extreme graphics.
 
10 on medium, that's actally pretty impressive. Might almost be playable on low, in windowed mode, though it would look worse than HL1:(
