bah... ridding the hell out of my opteron 175 on socket 939... 
but the old girl still competes with the big guns - my 1950pro is suffering but with max overclock on the cpu and gfx, qw works like a charm...
still prefer tf2 though... but then again i'm a css and "all things valve" fanboy!
wish i could be like slappy and dish out millions for my rig  but i have a limiting factor called "the wife"...
hmm... 1994 - i think i was still on my 486 back then --- which was probly kicking slappy's pentium90 ass too!  _________________

Peh... 6600... should have got the 6750 and OCed it like a biatch.
Nawwww... good system 
I have a BFG 8800GTS 640MB Factory OC at 550MHz, had it since february... only had problems with nVidia not releasing their drivers for 6 months since they released the card, after that... NEVER had a problem. But... if its bothering you that much, one thing I have noticed with previous nVidia cards... is that they don't like rendering shadows in certain games. _________________

Kinda puts me off playing it as well.. _________________

Kinda puts me off playing it as well.. 19" tft @ 1440*900, 2mb ddr 800 memory, am2 6000 cpu, ati 2900 gpu, crossfire mobo, nothing overclocked not fiddled with ingame setting apart from setting the res. Seems to run smoother than tf2 to be honest.

The right click lag... uhhh... does it happen ALL the time... or just the first couple times when you load the PC..? I mean mine will do it from time to time, mainly when I've just booted or exited a Memory heavy application. I usually just right click a couple things (folder, desktop, background in folder etc) once and its lightning fast after that.
But I have had a problem with constant lag in that area... found out that if I unplugged the net cable it fixes that. So its probs not a memory or gfx card issue.

Seems to run smoother than tf2 to be honest. Hmm.. that's a similar kind of level of spec to mine (C2D E6400, 2gb DDR 800 etc).. although I play at 1680x1050. I get well over 50-60 fps normally so it's not a graphical problem I think, must be something else...

Yeah that's what I get when the game tries to load up the game and then again when it tries to load a map, just hangs up totally for about a minute or so, then plays really jerky once in the game...  _________________

a mate had the same problem during the beta, there was a helpful post pointing to the correct drivers required on the ETQW community site (which did totally resolve it), but can't find it anymore...
