I'm looking at getting this on Black Friday. I think it's 370 or 400, either way its a steal. The link is Here(click me) . I was wondering if this would play CS:Source decently? I have a desktop(sig), but my friend is also looking to get one, and is wondering if it would run CS:S.

Also, is this a good CPU? I basically have no idea on notebook CPU's, so i'd appreciate any help I can get on the topic.


Thanks :)
 
It can probably not run CS:S well at all. It has integrated intel 950 graphics which cannot handle the source engine.
 
CompUSA has a Compaq Presario v5108cu for BF. It should run Source fine.
 
Ok, so I have two posts that completely contradict each other. I appreciate the input, but can someone please clear some things up about the machine?
 
I would stay away from gma 950 integrated graphics. It will play cs:source, but not very well..

Would I notice any difference with the Integrated Intel® Media Accelerator 900 Graphics?

GMA 950 is better than the 900 series. Even at low settings, neither will run Source at all, I have tried this with no success.
