Been away from CSGO for roughly two years. I installed it yesterday on my gaming laptop and was seeing around 100 to 140 fps with frequent drops. I experimented with launch options and various FPS CFGs.
Used the Ulletical Benchmark map and achieved about 62 average fps (which is disappointing) when all low settings were applied.
There must be something wrong here.
I need at least 200 fps for this game. Even in COD Warzone 2, I manage 90fps without any stutters.
My current setup:
ROG Strix G15 Laptop
R7 5800H
RTX 3070
16GB RAM
Even on my older laptop, I used to get 80+ fps back then.
All other games run smoothly, but this one is the only one causing problems.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated <3
Additionally, I’m using a dual-monitor configuration (playing on the main laptop screen at 300Hz and having a vertically mounted 144Hz monitor on the side). Could this two-monitor arrangement be affecting my FPS?

Running both monitors together affects performance, yet achieving 60 fps in Counter Strike falls short of what these specifications should provide. Recheck using a single monitor setup to confirm the problem.

CSGO requires significant CPU power and works mainly on a single thread. Many users complain about gaming laptops failing to perform well. Typically, people play games while connected to a power source. A frequent issue is thermal throttling. Coolers need to be compact and lightweight, which limits their power output. Running applications like HWMonitor or HWinfo will show the current, minimum, and maximum CPU temperatures. For Intel chips, a red maximum of 100°C indicates throttling. With Ryzen processors, it’s usually around 90°C. The CPU reduces its multiplier and power consumption to safeguard itself until conditions improve. At a lower multiplier, performance might drop to 100%. What can be done? Check that your cooler vents are unblocked and the fan is running. Use Windows balanced power mode instead of performance mode. Set a minimum CPU performance level around 20%. It may seem odd, but adjusting the advanced settings in Windows Balanced Power to a maximum of 90% rather than the default 100% can help. You might not notice much difference.
