Counter Strike Global Offensive System Requirements

Counter Strike Global Offensive system requirements

Counter Strike Global Offensive System Requirements won’t be too demanding for PCs, since the game is powered by the Source engine. This means Counter Strike Global Offensive has similar requirements to other games powered by the same engine, games like Left 4 Dead 2 and Portal 2. However, developer Valve has updated the engine over the years by adding more features and better visuals, while retaining performance across different PC hardware configurations. Here are the Counter Strike Global Offensive system requirements, as expected:

  • CPU: 3GHz single-core Intel or AMD processor
  • RAM: 1GB for Windows XP, 2GB for Windows Vista / Windows 7
  • Graphics: DirectX 9 compatible 256 MB graphics card, Nvidia 8000 series or AMD 3000 series.
  • Operating system: Windows XP SP2
  • DirectX compatible sound card
  • 6 GB of hard drive space

Counter Strike Global Offensive System Requirements (recommended)

  • CPU: Dual core Intel or AMD processor
  • RAM: 1GB for Windows XP, 2GB for Windows Vista/7
  • Graphics: DirectX 10 compatible 512 MB graphics card, Nvidia 400 series or AMD 5000 series.
  • Operating system: Windows 7 64-bit

    So for the recomended system requirements, how much would that cost me? Starting from scratch.

      Buying a complete computer without having knowledge of building one, would run you around $200-300 for a desktop and $300-400 for a laptop.

      I do believe the game will have multithreading, so that will be the same as 4.2 GHz, and that will probably be enough.

    200-$300 for a desktop from scratch? IDK where you shop at, but you probably wanna spend about2-$300 for the GPU – and definitely get NVIDIA directX 11 +- and youre going to want a quad core CPU – the prices have come down a lot though so you can get an i7 for about 250-300. Find a compatible MOBO – they run pretty cheap – maybe $200 bucks – just make sure it can house your GPU and CPU. Then you need Power supply – 1-$200 for a good one – HDD – price depends on size can be relatively inexpensive – ODD – $50 and you must have an Operating System – I recommend Windows I think basic 7 is like $150
    You should be able to build a custom gaming rig for about $900-$1300, and it would be able to support all of the latest games for the next couple of years
    oh yeah cases are pretty cheap too you can get a big one for les that a hundred bucks – again make sure the case is compatible with the motherboard

      They asked for a computer just good enough for recommended requirements of CSGO. Not a computer top of the line / to run the latest games at Ultra 1080p.

      Also you can get Windows free…

    It will run really good, especially with a new MacBook. Make sure your fans are running at their Max speed, so your computer doesn’t get to heated while playing t. After all, MacBooks arent really meant for gaming

    Danish, you need a “discrete video card” for this game if you would like to enjoy it.
    The better video card/GPU you have the smother.

    I use a laptop, but it was not cheep and has a discrete video card.

    “Msi GT 60″

    Core I7 3610QM @2.30 ghz turbo up to 3.20ghz :-) this is a 4 core CPU with hyper threading, so 8 logical cores.

    RAM, 12 GB of PC3-12800 – 800mhz , DDR3.

    GPU, Nvidia GTX 670M with 3 GB DDR5.

    Storege, Two 240GB SSD in Raid 0

    With the latest driver from nvidia, i am receiving 150-299 FPS

    Bottom line, i cant enjoy this game with out low latency.

    PS This is one of the times, you GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR…..
    Do not be cheep when picking GPU,CPU or Ram.
