While my Windows 7 machine is out of action I came up with an idea for a temporary pc, ideally one that could run me and my friend's favorite Source based game. At last I got my dodgy Soyo p4s Dragon motherboard working, put in a 2.8 p4, threw the 3x1gb sticks of ddr266 back into it and paired it with a Geforce ti4200. No idea about the fps, but with EVERY setting set to the minimum and at 640x480 resolution it is pretty much unplayable. When there is no action I get a buttery smooth consistent gameplay. As soon as people start moving and shooting it turns into a slow mess. Keep in mind that this is the Steam version of the game. Any tips on getting this working better? or if it is possible to do so? I have a x1950 pro that could replace the Geforce4 but only a 250watt powersupply 😢
