With you playing?

I dont know, maby 20-5ish.

Edit-
Think of this site. It has a 2.8ghz P4 with 1gb ram. The site never laggs, and there are usually alotta people on. Is it laggy for you? Me neither and there is..

263 (19 members and 244 guests)

I mean, sure there are major major differences, but kinda the same prinipla.

I hope what you said was a good estimate, cus 20 people sounds great!

Well, I was strictly talking about the computer.

Im not sure about your upload speed. But as long as it is a steady stream, it should be okay. Because it isnt but like a 6kbs stream upload.

Specs don't matter as much as your internet connection.

I lag sometimes on this. I got that message a lot that screws up my topics and never posts it and when I try it again, it says it is a duplicate of something that was posted before.

i get that to, but ive learnt to get around it lol, anyway about the server ya it should work but i would think u need a higher upload speed but i dont know whats good for that since mine is 512kb/s so maybe yours isnt enough?

 

[Raymuindo]

Mines enough to host a server, i just want how many players I can handle

 

[PerfectSK]

Probably a few. I have like a 768k connection and in Halo, I can only host with a few ppl without lagging extremely bad.

game fps mostly depend on video card.

ur memory is not a problem for cs as long as ur video card is decent.

i get 100fps in smoke nade with my specs.
