    I'm might get a hp dv9700t with these specs:
    Processor:Intel(R) Core(TM) 2 Duo Processor T8300 (2.40GHz)
    screen:17.0" diagonal WXGA+ High-Definition HP BrightView Widescreen Display (1440 x 900)
    memory:3GB DDR2 System Memory (2 Dimm)
    Graphics:512MB NVIDIA GeForce 8600M GS
    Hard drive:240GB 7200RPM SATA Dual Hard Drive (120GB x 2)

    Would this run css? and how much fps will I be getting and yes I know ive asked this alot but I keep changing my mind of what brand to get.

    Maxed in which sense?

    I doubt it will run PERFECTLY with max resolution, 16xQQ, Vsync, 16xAF.
    HDR lighting to the max.


    other then that...it will run perfect :)

    Well I don't go by saying "max res" only max settings :p

    8xAA is fine, 16xAF with HDR will probably only lag in large games with lots of action going on, but the quality settings will be at high no doubt!

    CSS should run on high settings and 4x AA/AF+ on good frame rates. Its very playable with the 8600m GS.

    Its already very playable on a 8400m GS.

    It might be playable....barely. I'd think about sticking to 1.6 instead.

    Sigh...we already know you are underage to buy this game. I warned you once, and banned you for two days when you did it again.

    This is the third time.

    Please take the next week to decide if posting this again is worth a permanent ban.
