Issue with low frame rates on a high-end PC in CS:GO
Issue with low frame rates on a high-end PC in CS:GO
I wanted to play some CS games, so I downloaded it but it didn’t work properly. On default settings and at 1920x1080 resolution, I managed about 150 frames per second with occasional stutters and drops to 80 every other second. After adjusting the system a bit while optimizing my PC, I installed a fresh Windows 10 version following Fr33thy’s instructions. Now, during intense matches, I’m consistently achieving 180-220 FPS, though my GPU usage stays between 92-99% while CPU stays under 11-13%. When playing in 5v5 matchmaking, my average remains around 150-180 FPS.
The changes I made included:
- Disabling XMP profile
- Enabling CPU overclocking
- Cleaning the operating system
- Installing the latest NVIDIA drivers after removing them with DDU
- Using the oldest available NVIDIA drivers
- Downloading Ryzen Master and applying the "curve optimizer"
- Disabling cores 0-3 in CS:GO
- Setting CS:GO to high priority
- Activating and deactivating "uber shaders"
- Updating BIOS settings
- Switching between different power plans
- Removing all configuration and setting files
- Testing configurations from YouTube sources
enable pbo in bios to enhance your processor speed (cs:go is affected by high single core boost clock).
what are your gpu temperatures? try running furmark for stability and checking temps.
review your ram profile in bios; if it's default 2133/2400MHz, performance drops a lot in cs:go.
usually you should see about 300-350fps in deathmatch (varies with server size).
in competitive 5v5, performance depends on the map but generally stays between 300-450fps (avoid dropping below 270-280).
I have it turned on, along with XMP support. The CPU runs between 55-65°C and the GPU between 65-80. For instance, in Valorant I achieved 400fps at full HD during a deathmatch.
if this is a custom build, make sure you install the chipset drivers from the motherboard manufacturer website.
I would suggest not messing with CPU overclocking.
Use latest Nvidia drivers.
Make sure you're on the Ryzen High Performance power plan in Windows.
Either enable or disable hardware accelerated GPU scheduling in Windows (I personally leave it off)
You could even go so far as to enable ReBAR on your system if you like (if you happen to go into the BIOS again. Won't have anything to do with your CS:GO issue, just something to mess with in general for fun)
