This is a benchmark of Valve's Counter-Strike: Source game. The test profile assumes you have a Steam account, have Steam installed for the system, and that Counter-Strike: Source is already installed. This automates the process of executing the game and using a standardized time demo. Learn more via the OpenBenchmarking.org test page.
