The captain of 9Pandas, Denis "seized" Kostin, has voiced his dissatisfaction with the PCs provided in their practice room at the RMR event leading up to the PGL CS2 Major Copenhagen 2024. Despite the availability of 360 Hz monitors, the PCs are only averaging 200-300 FPS, a performance issue that seized has brought to light.

In a critique aimed at the event organizers, seized suggested that the root of the problem may be the outdated processors being used—specifically, the Ryzen 5950X, which players used back in the days of CS:GO. Additionally, Kostin noted that the studio where the matches are to be held is equipped with PCs with similar configurations.

Seized took to Twitter to express his concerns, urging the tournament organizers to provide more powerful computers to match the high-caliber competition expected at such events. While his initial tweet featuring a photo demonstrating the FPS issue was later removed, a similar post remains on Telegram, along with a direct appeal to the tournament's organizers for improved hardware.

The 9Pandas are set to compete in Group A at the European RMR. The tournament, scheduled to run from February 14 to February 17 in Romania, will see 16 teams compete for eight spots at the major and three slots in the last chance qualifier.

As the situation unfolds, the community and fellow competitors are closely monitoring the response from the event organizers. With professional players relying on top-notch equipment to perform at their best, the pressure is on to ensure that the technical aspects of the tournament meet the high standards of CS2 esports. The outcome of this issue could set a precedent for the quality of equipment provided at future events, with the hope that seized's call to action will resonate with those in charge.
