Sentia and Counter strike

How does the sentia play counter strike. Its the only gaem i playa nd it would be nice to play on the go or while at school. Ive seen it play HL2 so you guys think it would play Cs very well with 100 fps at 800x600.


also how is the LCD on this laptop. Is there ghosting or motion blur

No its pretty good on the sentia. I play at 1280 x 800 and it runs great at about 70-80 fps.

YES with Intel Graphics 2!

The Intel Graphics 2 has a bad rap as a result of earlier models.

Does the latest Sentia Laptop have issues with a flashing power light and dead pixels, or was that over stated.

y do u need it at 100?? honestly?? i used 2 not get above about 70fps b/c the refresh rate was stuck now i get 150fps and there is virtually no difference... andthe 150 is on source...so u dont really need 100fps... u can only see about 30fps anyways

You do know that on all TFT monitors the Refresh rate (not frame rate) it 60 Hz... So 100 gives you 0 benefit over 60... simply cos the monitor won't run any faster...

I think people always slam the inegrated graphics chip because its not all that good, but relatively speaking its alright and alot of games can be played very smoothly with all sorts of stuff on low. for example I used to do alot of Halo on a P4, 1.7 Ghz with 512 Mb of Rambus ram - now that the mobo's died I have to replace it and the memory... and a Geforce 2 MX graphics card - I used to play Halo really smoothly at 640x480 with most things on low or medium (except Particles - had those on high)...

Are we talking about CS 1.6 or CS: source here?!

HL2 played OK, CS source was ok in some maps... but italy just juddered to a halt, with no opponents in!
