Currently I prefer teamspeak over all of these.

Teamspeak is a voice client. And a voice client only. Steam is a social platform. From my years on steam, groups on steam are closely linked to voice clients (especially for gaming).

Teamspeak still works better for most [FC] members than steam for purposes of the ICW.

Yeah use both. Steam for alt tab = type chat/ easy to link url etc + ts3 for voice chat.

Im also using TS for type chat, easy URLs and PMs. Steam lags on my PC more than TS for some reason.

TS i have checked, and it is the least CPU intensive of all the above programs. While I'm sure any of you have a computer that can run any of these programs well (on a normal basis) I figured you should know that TS is the least intensive on your CPU.

I think mumble and ventillo have lower overall, especially with 20+ clients. But the difference is very small.

I've been in a public TS right now to check it and the CPU Usage was 0% and RAM Usage was 26MB lol
