Hi Philip! I watched this video when it came out and specifically noticed the section about plugging your monitor into your gpu. This is something that, for me, resides in the tech support deadzone between "this is a very simple mistake someone could make" and "this is a very complicated thing someone wouldn't be able to solve" and, as such, I would never have considered it as a troubleshooting step for anyone who came to me with low framerates or other issues. I knew how to do it right and kinda assumed everyone else did, too. Less than 8 hours later, I was in a call with a friend (who does not and never has played CS) that was having computer issues. I noticed their 3080 was at 0% utilization, and remembered that step this video. I asked them to check... and their monitor was plugged into the wrong place. It didn't entirely fix their problems, but it certainly helped. Thank you for mentioning this in your video. I can attest to it helping at least one person.

Take care of inside of your pc\laptop. Sometimes cleaning and changing thermal paste/pads is enough to make things better, but sometimes you have to buy a new cooler (especially if you have box one) or add/change fans, to make your case less like oven. Doesn't matter what thermal paste you buy, but how you put it makes a difference. And changing cpu can do wonders even with weaker cards. I switched from r3 1200 to r5 3600 with gtx 1050 and I still saw a huge difference in games and overall performance. SSD is another cheap and good upgrade, doesn't matter sata or m2, both will do wonders (m2 is better, but if you don't have one sata still do it's job).

1. It doesn't matter how you "put" thermal paste. X, dots, smiley face, whatever the fuck you want, as long as you put enough of it and not too little. Too much is better than too little, excess paste will just be squeezed out by the cooler as you install it. It will only make a mess, not hurt performance. Make sure the paste is not conductive, but most good cheap pastes like MX-4 and Noctua NT-H2 are just fine. 2. It's a bad idea to randomly start changing thermal paste and pads, especially in a laptop, you could make things worse without realizing. First, determine that the paste/pads are indeed the problem by seeing if you even have thermal issues in the first place, and if dusting doesn't fix it. I agree with the rest.

This is a really well made guide, i don't have any issues running cs2 but if i did this video would be very helpful

Thank you, this really helped. I had vsync activated in my nvidia settings, while thinking that it is off (because of the game settings).

(The scaling-up of a lower resolution doesn't work at all for me though)

Philip you need to test this command "engine_low_latency_sleep_after_client_tick 1" it was added recently and its description is "When r_low_latency is enabled, this moves the low latency sleep on tick frames to happen after client simulation." it only works when reflex is enabled and apparently it increases 1% lows by alot.

Not CS2 specifically, but in general I find it helps a lot to use overclocking tools to keep the graphics card (and memory) in a certain frequency range. Rather than just overclocking everything to the max, I get a much better experience when I down the max frequencies and up the low frequencies, such that it doesn't suck as much power and at the same time keeping the games smooth, because the frequencies don't drop much if the graphics card "thinks" there's nothing major going on in the game right now. I noticed this in GTA V first. As soon as I fixed the horrible lows despite having a powerful graphics card (RX 6950 XT) using the method described, nearly every single other game was fixed as well. So, instead of drawing around 300 watts when the GPU "thinks" it needs all the power it can get, and the next second lowering my FPS to around 20 because it "thinks" it doesn't need to do anything, I have a steady 80-90 FPS range in Cyberpunk 2077 now, all the while only drawing around 170 watts while playing (all settings maxed out + FSR Quality, no ray tracing). Oh and I use MSI Afterburner to accomplish this, the Radeon driver doesn't really save the frequency profiles as I wish it would. Hope this can help someone.

It's worth noting that capping your framerate in the console in Source games is really funky. My PC starts pretending it can't maintain whatever number I type in, even when it's capable of 4x the performance. Much better to cap the framerate through GPU drivers (Radeon Chill etc.) or through Rivatuner

If you are playing on a laptop, using a program like Throttlestop to halt your CPUs turboboost from thermal throttling your laptop might make the game feel smoother too. Some laptops share a copper heatsink from the GPU and CPU, so one getting hot impacts the others max performance. Using this program I brought down my max turbo ratio by .5 GHz and it feels so much better and my laptop doesn't get as worryingly hot. The fps remained similar but it did feel smoother, altough I admit that this all may be all in my mind.

FSR may introduce additional latency so it's not ideal to enable it if you've already got a decent enough system

This makes a lot of sense to me now, I was confused why my RTX2060 struggled, I know it’s not a super high end card but I thought it was recent enough that CS2 would be okay, now I think it might be my CPU as lowest settings 4:3 doesn’t really seem to improve anything At least I get 144fps in most situations in a comp game but it’s annoying when I’m trying to warm up in a deathmatch

Hi! What is your CPU model? I have the same card, paired with an Intel i7-8700k @ 3.7GHz. I have the same FPS as you, roughly.

If you are interested, Windows has significantly more options for controlling performance outside the default settings you can view in the power plan settings. Often OEM will set these to improve battery life. There are things which change min/max frequency from everything from P and E cores, to throttling of the CPU instead of spinning fans up to save on battery. Some of these can easily boost performance, while others are really niche and probably wont do much. Big caveat should be made here as you could end up significantly reducing the amount of battery you have with a minor setting, or reducing the life of parts as they get stressed more frequently. Similar to how charging batteries to 100% is worse for long time performance of batteries than charging to 80%.

I've searched the internet and found about clearing the DirectX shader cache and I did that, the full on freezing and constant stuttering got fixed but I still have somewhat of micro stuttering now and then.

Try looking for a software of your laptop, my lenovo comes with one and there I can change between silent, normal or turbo (Fn + Q does it as well for me) it changes the CPU TDP and boost behaviour, the R7 6800H does 3ghz in silent, and almost 5ghz is turbo, GPU also gets way more power therefore more FPS. TLDR: Check for laptop software to change power profile.

Check your temps, clock speeds and usage percentage on both gpu and cpu during gameplay and at both high and low settings. See if you find anything odd there, for example very high temps (85°+), low clock speeds, or low usage percentage (especially on the gpu)

I've got a Ryzen 5 5600 RTX 3070 2x8 Gb DDR4 3200MhZ ram and sometimes rarely but still the game just starts lagging out of nowhere i shoot a bullet it stutters, I get killed it stutters, an enemy walks closer to me in game it stutter. As of now i've found no solutions to these problems would love for a fix or anything

do you have an ssd or are you using an hdd? getting an ssd fixed all of the stuttering issues in cs for me. it used to be extremely annoying and get me killed all the time, because when either i or someone else was shooting at me, the game would sometimes freeze for 1-2 seconds.

Well, it’s not your components slowing you down. At least not the processor, gpu or memory. You could try reinstalling on an ssd if you you’re using an hdd right now. Did you monitor your temps? Maybe somethings off with the cooling. Updated all the drivers? Plugged in the graphics card correctly? Maybe something’s running in the background, have you been looking into task manager while gaming?

​@@Nyahnator interesting you metioned temps, i have the 5600x and its a very hot processor if youre using the stock cooler and pbo enabled on bios(its on by default), i got around 80-90 degress c on pubg, the performance didnt seem to be worse but its definitely smth to keep an eye on, i turnes it off and also didnt change much of the performance but the temps dropped down to like 65 or so

set a framerate limit in the drivers and change fps_max in csgo back to 400

Is that red laptop of yours a dell inspiron with the 1050ti? I have 2 of those, and both of yhem struggle to run Tf2 at smooth 60fps, let alone cs2

Will Philip make a video on the entirety of weapon's balance changes between CSGO and CS2 Release?

From my experience, pairing 1050 Ti with decent 4 core+ CPU results in decent enough performance. Personally used i3-7100, which was extremely terrible. Situation might be better on 12th gen+ Pentiums and such, but i would suggest going for i3-12100f in this case, it doesn’t cost much more. (Personally used it with 1660 Ti, solid enough, GPU was the bottleneck in most cases, LGA1700 has pretty good upgradability also) Even better choice would be some AM4 Ryzen, they are pretty cheap nowadays and still offer very good performance, i am personally using R5 3600 + GTX 1050 Ti pairing rn. Performance is fine, so if you still have 1050ti - giving it a decent CPU will help in cs2 for the time being. This CPU is easily going to handle much newer GPUs, and you also have an ability to get an 5600X etc.

Omg i have i3 7100 too LOL with GTX 1050, i want to go with i5 12100f first after that i upgrade my GPU what do u think?

@@yacinebg8582 Best advice I can give you is to prefer a "weaker" new CPU over a "stronger" old CPU. "i3", "i5", "i7" "i9" etc... isn't nearly as important. A current, last gen, or 2/3 generations back i3/i5 will almost certainly give you better real world performance then anything prior to 10th gen because the way the CPU actually runs is superior, modern low end>older high end.
