A SOURCE review can be found <A HREF="http://www.counterfrag.com/x-counterstrike-source-beta-review.htm" target="_new">here</A>

Gaming companies will soon require physicists rather than programmers.

<b><i><font color=red>"you shoot something; it goes flying. Big deal. Well, take a shot at a barrel. It falls over, maybe rolls a bit. Next time aim at the side. The barrel literally starts spinning in circles until it falls over. Aim at the top, the barrel will do a backflip. The new physics engine makes the ragdoll bodies very realistic. The bodies don't dissappear. They sit there. On 30+ player servers they start piling up, their limbs twisted uncomfortably naturally. Its actually quite creepy."</b></i></font color=red>

You have to have/be either one

1] A Cyber Cafe Owner with a Valve license OR
2] Owner of CS:CZ OR
3] Having HL2 coupon from ATI.

I bet you arent the 1st, 3rd is out of quetion now unless you buought a card with that coupon. Hence to play source you gotta buy Condition Zero. You can do that via steam from <A HREF="http://www.steampowered.com" target="_new">http://www.steampowered.com</A>

In the above test I failed to mention what ATI drivers I was using. There I used catalyst 4.8 with the OGL driver of catalyst 4.9 just as i did for Doom 3. Infact it was for Doom 3.

In anycase I uninstalled all old drivers and switched back to complete 4.9 betas.

My FPS now became 58.64. Thats a jump by almost 10.

So <i>for me</i> 4.9 perform better than 4.8.
