Storage performance varies based on your drive type. Are you connected with a hard disk or a solid-state drive? What is the current speed of your hard drive?

Do you have the correct details? I'm checking to see if this setup works for playing CS:GO.

This game won't run smoothly on a GeForce 4. It's unusual for such a card to have 64MB of VRAM, and it's unlikely to work with Windows XP unless it has under 192MB.

End there immediately. Obtain a fresh computer.

Higher memory, additional video memory, quicker storage. Based on these details, you likely have a 5400rpm SATA hard drive. If you're still using an IDE drive, plan for a complete replacement.

Improve all settings as suggested. Purchase a Samsung SSD with at least 256GB. For now, if CS:GO opens the drop menu, set it to minimum performance and turn off multicore rendering. Enable launch options like (CS:GO must be closed when you adjust these from your game library): freq 77, high, noforce, noforceacceleration, noforceparams, noforcespd, noforcecepmps, noforcececmps, nojoy, novid, noheap, no3d9ex, and disable certain fonts. Use console +exec autoexec to close every other background process while playing CS:GO.

You're using Windows 10 with a 5400 RPM HDD. When you get a new PC this summer, consider upgrading your RAM first—4GB is a good start for smooth performance. SSDs are faster but more expensive; decide based on your needs.

I manage to join CSGO, but the loading times are really slow. At 1080p with high settings I see around 15 frames per second on medium, about 30 on low, and 40-50 when I finally enter a match.

It's a mix of RAM and storage that's the issue. For a complete upgrade, choose an SSD. Using DDR2 RAM is unnecessary since you'll likely move to DDR3 or DDR4. The SSD should still perform better than an HDD, though it might be slightly limited by the SATA connection.
