CPU performance can have a significant effect on CS2 FPS.

Please note: These figures are realistic performance estimates rather than guaranteed benchmark results. Actual FPS can vary depending on the processor, memory, drivers, game updates, background applications, cooling, selected map and individual game settings. Ray tracing, shaders, resolution scaling and frame generation can also significantly change performance.

Integrated graphics estimates assume 16GB of dual channel 3200MHz memory. Systems using single channel memory or slower RAM may deliver substantially lower integrated graphics performance.

PINK PARSNIP COMPUTERS LISTING // THE-PARSNIP-DRIVE

🎮 The Parsnip Drive

BC250 powered Bazzite gaming console and Linux desktop hybrid.

Choose your required storage option

Quick Buy Summary

The Parsnip Drive is not a normal Windows gaming PC. It is a bespoke BC250 powered gaming system running Bazzite, giving you a Steam style console experience with the added freedom of a full Linux desktop behind it.

Think of it as a Steam Deck style device for your desk or living room, but with around three times the performance of a Steam Deck. It is ideal for people who want a plug and play gaming experience, classic emulation potential and the opportunity to learn Linux without starting from scratch.

🎮 Best For Steam style couch gaming, indie games, emulation and Linux learning

🚀 Performance Level Around 3x Steam Deck performance

🐧 Operating System Bazzite Linux with a Steam style gaming interface

📦 Delivery Bespoke build with 14 working day delivery

⚠️ Important Game Compatibility Notice

The Parsnip Drive does not support TPM or Secure Boot. This means it will not run games that require TPM, Secure Boot or Windows based anti cheat systems.

This is not a fault. It is part of how this Linux based gaming system works. It is best viewed as a powerful Steam Deck style system, not as a replacement for a full Windows gaming PC.
