Hi, your setup seems to be experiencing performance drops after recent updates. With an i7 8086K and 3070 16GB RAM, you're in a good range for gaming. The jump from 350-400 FPS to 45-60 after CSGO updates suggests the issue might be related to game settings, resource usage, or driver conflicts. Check if you're using the latest drivers for your graphics card and consider updating your game settings to lower resource demands. If the problem persists, try disabling third-party extensions or testing in a different game to isolate the cause.
Verify it's a CS GO update rather than Windows or configuration problems. Check all standard functions first. 1. Confirm video drivers are current 2. Ensure Windows is updated, though a recent patch might help 3. Open Nvidia Control Panel and reset it to defaults so any accidental settings like DLDSR maxing out are undone. If issues persist, use DDU to uninstall the display driver, reboot, then install the newest drivers.
Lowering my settings causes a 20 FPS drop, varying by map. Just ran a comp on Infero first round—70 FPS then 220 in the second. I’ll format and reinstall Windows later, hoping it gets fixed.
The AA level didn't revert to MSAA 8x. This has occurred multiple times for me.
