Celeron D and GeForce 7300GS?

[andyle]

I just purchased the Emachine bundle from BB and I want to play CS 1.6 on it. I am sure the on board video would do an "OK" job, but would...this will work well with this?

Or, while keeping in mind what I want to do, could you guys recommend another decent video card that this computer could support? I don't need anything fancy, just something I can use and be content with.

That should be compatable judging from the specs of the eMachines computer. All that would be required is the disabling of the onboard video via the BIOS

You'll be fine. 7300GS is no powerhouse but I played F.E.A.R. acceptably with it so CS should be nothing.

That card would work fine for what you want to do. But if all you want to play is cs 1.6 the onboard should be more then enough. I would try it out first and see how it works out, CS is a old game and doesnt need much to run. One thing though if i was going to get that card i would go with the GT version for the same price.

Like everyone else said, the integrated should be fine for just CS. But if you want a little more get a 7300GT for the same price. Its pretty much a 6600GT (compared to how the GS is pretty much a FX 5200).

The GS is more like a 6600 vanilla or 6200. It is far more powerful than the FX5200.
