Sure, I can help with CS2. Let's get started!
Hey everyone, I hope everything is okay. First, let's talk about my PC setup: CPU is i9-12900k, GPU is Rtx 4080, motherboard is z6090 gigabyte pro, 48GB DDR5 RAM, 1TB SSD. I’m experiencing problems with CS2. When I launch the game, it runs smoothly for about 30 to 40 minutes, after which my FPS drops significantly. Sometimes it feels like the keyboard gets stuck, or I see wild FPS swings—from 400 down to 50, then hovering around 150-200. I’ve tried all the fixes I could find online, but nothing seems to help. I’ve even considered using a service from Fiverr, hoping someone with CS2 expertise could assist, but they told me they can’t help. This issue has been ongoing for nearly three months now, and it’s really exhausting. My PC hasn’t changed much in the past two years, and I only cleaned it once about a year ago. I’m wondering if it might be related to my BIOS settings or something else. I’ve used an app called App Center from Gigabyte to auto-overclock, and it worked briefly, improving FPS. However, my PC crashes mid-game, which suggests it can’t handle overclocking properly—maybe I need a better cooler than the one I have. I’m already running all the recommended graphics settings at low levels, hoping this will resolve the problem. If anyone has any ideas or suggestions, please share. If you’re willing to help, even for a small fee, I’d really appreciate it. Just let me know!
Return everything to the factory, reset BIOS settings, set everything back to default for CPU, RAM, and GPU. Check how many RAM modules are installed. Update your GPU drivers and get the latest versions from the official Nvidia site. Test any additional GPUs you own. Move your GPU to a different PCIe slot and see if it works. What updates or changes have you made to your PC over the last three months?
I'll handle this tonight after work. I'll also reset everything back to factory settings—bios, OS, GPU—and keep you updated here. Thanks!
Restart all your device drivers, likely simpler by performing a complete reset—clearing the boot drive and installing Windows via a USB—and reinstall BIOS. Also take out the additional 8GB RAM modules; even if they match the brand, their timing might differ.
Sure, also test RAM sticks one by one in each slot to check if it helps.
