(SOLVED)Intel Core Duo E6700 at 2.66ghz && Counter-Strike: Global Offensive

[swaggy]

Hi,

I am currenly thinking about buying Counter-Strike: Global Offensive but I'm not sure wheter or not it will run fluently on my pc. I have a modified DELL Optiplex 745:

• Intel Core Duo E6700 at 2.66ghz
  
• 4 GB RAM
  
• NVIDIA GeForce GT 630 Gigabyte Edition, 2GB

My question is: Has anyone of you guys experience with this processor or a similar setup playing CS:GO?

Thanks!

The FPS you'll get with that rig will be 40-60fps, at best. I imagine 30~ fps is a more realistic expectation.

Will work but you'll probably have to use 4:3 and everything on low.

A duo core computer is terrible for CS:GO... it'll work as people have said, but with low fps...

I run this game on Geforce 210 and everything runs smoothly at 25-30 fps. He will be probably able to play this game at high settings.

I have an Intel Core 2 Duo clocked at 1.89 GHZ, and my GPU is a GeForce GTX 550 TI.
Along with that, 4GB RAM like you have. Yeah, it'll work fine, if not better then mine! I normally get 45-60 fps on medium-high settings. I play on max resolution (1600x900 since I can't afford a 1080p), with settings all set to high, except anti-aliasing.

i have

CPU: intel Celeron g1620 2.7ghz
RAM: 4GB
Graphics Card: Intel HD Graphics 2500

Resolution: 720p HD

FPS: 50-60 on high settings except shaders and shadows which i have both of them on low

Your PC can run CS. i guess you will get around 80-100 FPS on high settings at resolution 720p HD. Drop the resolution to 800x600 or less and low settings and you will get +130 fps

You can run the game fine with that no worries.

I have the exact same CPU, a Intel Core Duo E6700 with an EVGA GTX 460 superclocked. I am able to play CSGO without issues with it, but I play at 1024x768 stretched.

The thing to note about the Intel Core Duo E6700 is that it is highly overclockable. You can overclock it up to 3.2 GHZ at stock voltage on air cooling and some have gotten it up to 3.5 GHZ.

If you invest in a few good case fans with a high CFM rating you should easily be able to overclock your E6700 to at least 3 GHZ without a problem.

3 GHZ is a relatively safe overclock, especially with the Source engines intensive CPU usage.

You might want to research overclocking your cpu at Toms Hardware or have a friend help you. Toms Hardware is a pretty good site to find out info or ask questions about overclocking.

Thanks a lot! I really appreciate your help.
I'll get it tomorrow...

For those interested: I get constant 50-60fps playing dust with an resulution of 1360x768 on low settings. And it's fun learning Russian :D
