True... But it is a last-gen card and I am getting a 6800 GT very soon. I don't play that many games anymore and this will be my last upgrade for what it is worth.
Also...
There a lot of things wrong with CS:S... But the main one that Valve needs to get on is the huge flaw in the netcode that adds to much latency where none should exist due to the messed up server side prediction.
For a detailed list of things that are wrong with source, including this crucial networking bug:

The list is only biased in that the author is a competitive player... But the evidence he gives (toward the bottom) about how bad the netcode is something Valve needs to address because all gamers, competitive or not, would benefit from this if they fix it AND it may bring in more gamers because it would improve the gameplay 10 fold as well.
