ENB series is a mod using a different version of the D3D9.dll to push the capability of your graphics and also by forcing certain elements. For example, depth, blur, hdr, and all the jazz. I've been using my alt account to play with it because I don't know if its VAC banable. I sent in a ticket and as soon as I find out, i'll let ya guys know. But anyways, it completely transformed how CSS looks. I took a couple screen shots and a video to show you. It gives it a nice realism imo.
My video: There is a lot of blur to it, not because of the video quality, but because thats what the mod does heavily, uses depth of field a lot. You can really see it in action at 3:20 if you look as the surrounding scenery.
Better show case of ENB for CSS:
Here is the download link for it. Just extract all the files to your "counter-strike source" folder. Not the cstrike one. If you have done it right, it should say something in the top left corner that it is enabled. Does not work with MSI afterburner or EVGA precision. It won't start it you have those programs running. SHIFT + F12 toggles it on and off.

Now here is what ENB did to my Skyrim... (you can find the mod at www.skyrim.nexusmods.com When running it at these dimensions, my pc actually shutdown after 30 minutes because my system was running way too hot over 100 C, even with 3x 480s all at 100% fan speed so be careful with this mod)
