Most likely you should keep the CPU at its standard setting—it’s unnecessary to tweak it further if you’re unsure. Boost your GPU performance, and you should see a significant jump, possibly reaching around 9500. Restarting Windows won’t make much difference; focus on keeping BIOS defaults intact (except for XMP settings).
I shared the same discussion on Reddit and noticed it's not that popular. Still, these numbers aren’t appealing to me. My goal is to see if there’s something wrong. I’m experiencing low performance in CS:GO, currently around 400 FPS. A system with a Ryzen 5 3600 @ 4GHz, RX 2060 and 15GB RAM at 3200Hz plus a TUF gaming B450 board handles 520 smoothly. My friend with an i5 11400F and GTX 1660 gets about 420. It’s not just about watching FPS stats—I really feel the lag and drops. I have a 240Hz monitor, so anything below that is concerning. Even in deathmatch, I often hit 200 or 180 FPS. I don’t just glance at the counter; I notice the actual performance issues.
this usually isn't the main goal of these benchmarks unless you use LN2, then maybe...! the aim is to check how the system performs overall, if it's stable... as mentioned, something definitely feels a bit wrong with your setup, but it's still pretty typical in general. now regarding CSGO... it's hard to say for sure, but based on what I said earlier, it seems like the software might be questionable, BIOS settings could be off, there might have been an incorrect overclock or undervoltage, or maybe something else is at play. make sure your BIOS and drivers are current, try reinstalling Windows, avoid adding extra programs like RGB tools—HWINFO64 or MSI Afterburner usually suffice for monitoring. keep your BIOS settings at the default configuration; it doesn't make sense to claim you undervolted something without knowing why you're having issues. nobody will believe you unless you stick to the defaults, and honestly, forcing overclocking won't boost performance much and could even damage the CPU. don't install Ryzen Master or "Zen timings" either... in short, keep it simple: use vanilla Windows, default BIOS, and let things run as they are.
