I am still very confused by how Valve could release a VAC2 update without including all platforms. What has it been 4 months now and no 64bit version of va2.
Here is the press release from Valve on March 7, 2003 announcing 64bit support for Counter-Strike. http://collective.valve-erc.com/index.php?news=1047073952-21295300 By not providing 64 bit VAC2 they have dropped 64bit support for CS but there has been no announcement. Did I miss a press release from Valve or AMD announcing them dropping 64bit support? Did Intel pay them to stop supporting AMD? Does AMD know that all of us that bought opterons to run CS servers to get the bonus of running 64bit CS have been been denied that benefit by valve for almost half a year now? We are closing in on a half a year without 64bit support. Come on valve, what's the deal. You were able to have good 64bit support for 2 years, what has changed to stop 64bit support dead in its tracks? At least give us the truth. I want my 30% performance boost back!!! "In a straight port of code highly optimized for x86-32, Counter-Strike dedicated server tests with both 32- and 64-bit versions revealed a 30% clock-for-clock gain, and is expected to show further performance gains in future upgrades." --- Joseph Laws <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > No, we don't.
