Experiencing low frame rates with 5700 FPS and 3600 FPS settings in CSGO
Experiencing low frame rates with 5700 FPS and 3600 FPS settings in CSGO
BiotechBen mentioned we need additional details to assist you better. I’m not sure if this relates much to your in-game preferences, but that’s useful. We also lack clarity on what you consider "Terrible" and how much performance you anticipate based on your equipment. Is your memory using dual-channel? Could it be that CSGO isn’t running on your GPU at all? At the moment, there could be many possible reasons, so more information would be beneficial.
And sorry for the limited details... The frame rate I recorded before was around 60fps on a 670. With my 5700xt and 3600 it’s consistently 40-55, though there can be noticeable drops sometimes. When focusing on areas with fewer assets, I see 85-90 fps or more. Regarding the driver, I think you’re asking about my GPU driver. I’m using the newest version (23.3.2) from the adrenaline edition—don’t know if that’s the update where you can view these stats, but it might matter. Not very familiar with some of this stuff, sorry. I noticed a frame drop a few months back; for example, in League I managed 144+ fps, but now it’s under 90, which is unexpected. As for the @DefinitelyRus comments, I have four 8GB slots each. I’m not sure how to confirm if CS:GO is running on my GPU at all...
It looks like the problem isn't hardware-related; it likely stems from software. Launch Task Manager to check if any apps are using excessive CPU, GPU, RAM, or storage. Repeat the test with the game open—possibly a resource-heavy program like Medal.tv. Close all background applications except essential ones, then play a game to see if your FPS improves. These steps help identify performance bottlenecks before addressing drivers.
While executing cs, performance metrics indicate significant GPU utilization with high usage. When idle, system load remains low. The key activity is the "client server runtime process," which increases GPU usage to about 35%. Other components operate at typical levels (CPU at 15%, memory at 25% due to chrome).
When does this happen? (e.g. During gameplay? Constant? Basically random?) Following the Client Server Runtime Process as the potential cause of the issue, you could try following this guide: https://www.technewstoday.com/fix-client...-high-gpu/ I can't guarantee whether any of it will help at all since some of the methods listed seem a bit useless, though you should still give it a shot first. https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/wind...34b9699670 In this thread, they talk about more or less the same issue, except it may have been linked to apps (incl. Chrome) using hardware acceleration. If you notice similarities in the GPU usage on your PC, this might be your ticket. Failing that, you can try updating all your drivers through Windows update, not just your graphics drivers. They can sometimes affect performance even when it seems unrelated at first. You can also try uninstalling your graphics drivers using DDU, then installing the drivers again manually. Other than straight up reinstalling Windows from scratch, I don't have much else to suggest here. Not only is reinstalling the OS a huge hassle, it might not fix the problem at all because the problem might have been related to one of the programs you install or the settings at which said programs are running. I hope that I've at least lead you to the right direction here.
