Looking to build a PC almost strictly for CS:GO that can get me hopefully 200+ frames in both deathmatch and 5v5 on my 144hz monitor (1080p, low settings). Have put together the build below, but am quite out of the loop on today's hardware; any critique would be great 1) What will you be doing...

I don't really think wireless is the way to go if you're used to using wired. Deathadder and IE3.0 are very similar, but I think you should just pick another IE3.0 off of eBay for $30 or so. EDIT: Looks like the Mamba is a wireless Deathadder? If it is, you should probably just get that.

If you want pixel accuracy you should definitely go with something like the QCK+.

bump!

Smooth transaction, bump!

There are huge differences between the two games. Guns/Recoil, Flashbangs, Smokes, and the fact that you can shoot trough walls in 1.6, among other things. You'd think that a person who has played both games competitively "in cevo" would notice these things as they are imperative to how you run...

In a video game, I'm not looking for whether it is realistic or not. I look for gameplay, skill to play the game, competition and enjoyment. I'm not arguing realism here.. I'm talking about gameplay. COD4 takes a lot less skill to play than CS, and there are a lot of aspects that I don't enjoy...

Bunnyhopping hasn't been an issue since the 1.5 -> 1.6 update came out, as it's really not that beneficial to do it anymore. As for getting killed by someone who's bunnyhopping, I don't think I've barely ever been killed by anyone doing it in 1.6. In CSS, that's a different story though as it's...

Deathadder, MX518, IE 3.0 or the Steelseries Ikari Optical are all good choices. Try to stick with optical.

Didn't like the game =/. Not nearly as open as San Andreas, and not as much stuff to do. (Rampaging around with the fighter jet in itself was worth it for San Andreas. Purchasable property was also awesome)

More kids on XBL than say, a Counter-Strike server to be honest.

How did you paint it like that?

Only reason I bought my PS3 was for MGS :P
