Struggling with CSGO on a GTX1080 graphics card
Struggling with CSGO on a GTX1080 graphics card
It hasn't been long since I last played GMod, even with lots of mods it worked fine. Interestingly, I played on a 4K TV and it handled everything smoothly.
Yeah, and that's how most Source games should be except for * shivers * Team Fortress 2. Yeah, just seems like a weird issue with the card. What resolution are you targeting here? I'd try to see if targeting higher resolutions in CS:GO specifically helps.
I own a 21:9 LG monitor with a 2560x1080 resolution connected via DisplayPort. I’m completely unsure because the card performs excellently under heavy loads and with other Source titles. I’ve also heard CSGO is quite CPU-heavy, but my system has an 8700k without an integrated GPU and it’s running at a high clock speed, so I’m not sure what to expect.
The game relies heavily on CPU processing, yet low scores aren't inevitable. Experiment with CPU affinity in Task Manager; assign CS the final four CPU threads.
I'm using a Vivaldi tab to illustrate the steps. Open the Details section in Task Manager, locate "csgo.exe" (or hl2.exe for Half-Life 2 and CS:Source), right-click, and select Set affinity to allocate the last four CPU threads. For a Ryzen 7 1700X, this would correspond to "CPU 12-15," though the exact allocation will vary.
