Yeah I'm upgrading to 1 gb (Maybe Two) of ram and I wanna play tf2, I meet the reccommended system requirements with my specs once I get the ram.

Will it also run counter strike smoothly?

If not what do I need to buy?

Btw I'm not buying some stupid 500 dollar gfx card.

I can get a whole new pooter for that much lolz.

Here's meh specs.

Just ignore my RAM it will be 1-2 gigs soon.

[InfinityZ]

What is TF2? And i think you ned to add more RAM, thas what i had to do for COD4 for my comp.

[beanmiester]

WTF, thats alot of stuf, i have no clue.

Hey thanks I've always wanted to give a spam infraction before breakfast.

[troll]

Why do you want tf2??

[beanmiester]

Why do you want tf2??

Cause skull has it and I can get it cheaply for like 10 bucks.

I also want CS.

[Apache]

Lol...TF2 is the game for the cretins!

Anyways, you should be fine with more memory. Neither CS or TF2 are really graphic intensive so you should run fine with whatever you have if it is within the requirements.

[beanmiester]

Well I guess I can play everything on low settings if I need too.

[Firstmate]

How much space do you have on your hard drive?
And if your upgradng to 1 Gb ram, you should be fine.
You should look more towards your graphics card.

Like 14 gigs.

Nub double post!

If you want to name the graphics card you have that would be helpful...but if you checked and it meets the system requirements you should be able to play it even if it has to be on low settings. I don't think the intel intergrated cards will do the trick for anything nowadays, so if you have one of those babies, think about swapping it out.

[beanmiester]

Directx 9 is my gfx card.

[Apache]

No it is not...

DirectX is an API, not a graphics card. Find it.

[beanmiester]

How the hell do I find it then...

[Apache]

I'm assuming you have a Windows OS.

Go to your control panel, then system and maintenance, and then device manager. Then click on the display adapters tab and your graphics card should appear there.

[troll]

Css has more replay valvue.

More mods like:

Surfing
hide n seek
zombie
tag
wc mod
warcraft mods
role playing mods


tf2 has:
surfing.



:confused:

Yeah it says directx 9 :(

I'm looking at a gforce gfx card atm.

Is it compatible with my system?

[Apache]

Which one?

Since the 9800GX2s came out the 8800s are cheap as twinkies. They still have the best "bang for your buck" and they are like 100 bucks cheaper than they were a few months ago.

[beanmiester]

Nvidia G-Force 2 MX Rev

Btw I found my gfx card, it's a Intel(R)82865G

Edit: Is this a good gfx card?

[beanmiester]

Bump for the moofin.

[Apache]

That's kinda...outdated.

The newest is the 9 series...and that is the 2 series.

The best bang for your buck is the 8800gt...trust me. You can check it out here (http://www.bestbuy.com/site/olspage.jsp?skuId=8657553&st=8800gt&lp=1&type=product&cp=1&id=1196469743507). 150 is amazingly cheap for that card.


EDIT: I just read your edit. Yea...I'm using the 8500GT 512...it sucks. I bought it a while ago but it sucks. Go with the 8800gt, it is so much better and now is the best time to buy it since the new 9 series was released.

[vSkyzv]

Get 4 gigs nub :p.

If not get 2-3 gigs.

[beanmiester]

Apache I'm not into spending 150 on a gfx card :(

And honor my computer is maxed at 2 gigs.

[Apache]

If you're gonna spend 60-70 on the 8500gt you minus well double it and get the 8800.

But..if its the 8500 you want then it'll work ok. But expect to spend more on an upgrade soon if you want to do anything else in the future...

[beanmiester]

Well It's not that I don't want the 8800 it's the fact of the money...

Would this work?

[Souless]

Why dont you forget TF2 and Get CSS and have fun killing noobs and stop trying to copy of sumone. Problem solved.

[Apache]

Ok..well go with the 8600 you suggested. That is the best out of the 8400gs and 8500gt.

Still...just get the freaking 8800.

I can get tf2 for free =\

That does not solve me gfx card problems.

I only have 75 bucks man.

[Apache]

You can be hired as a 'male escort'. I hear that pays well. :)

But honestly...you're just wasting more money. If you waste 75 on a crap card now...and then have to buy ANOTHER one later when you could just get the better one now...

[Kaspersky]

Ignore everyone else, 2 gigabytes of RAM is fine, and your video card is also fine if it's Direct X 3D compatible.

Btw how does a gfx card suck?

I don't plan on running crysis on max settings, or even at all.

I really don't care about graphics, I just wanna make sure I don't lag lolz.

Btw the 150 dollar sale ended.

[Apache]

Lol. Well I know that TF2 and CSS aren't graphics intensive so I guess you'll be fine with those but if you are planning on getting any newer games or anything in the future that won't do you much good.

I play on all low settings on CoD4 with textures set to mush and I still lag sometimes...So just keep in mind that the 8500 or even 8600 won't last you that long.
