🎮 How to Increase FPS in CS2 — Best Settings for Low-End PCs
⚙️ Graphics Settings for Better Performance
Open CS2 → gear icon → “Video” → “Graphics”. Apply the following settings:
Display Mode: Fullscreen
Power Saving Mode: Off
Boost Player Contrast: On
Vertical Sync (VSync): Off
Anti-Aliasing: CMAA2
Shadow Quality: Medium or High
Model/Shader/Particle Detail: Low
FidelityFX Super Resolution: Quality (or Off for low-end setups)
NVIDIA Reflex: On
🔊 Audio Settings
Disable all music in the “Music” tab, except the 10-second bomb timer sound. Background music can lower FPS on weaker systems.
🧠 Console Commands to Boost FPS
Open the console (~) and enter these commands:
cl_showfps 1
net_graph 1
fps_max 0
sys_info
fps_max 0
removes FPS limit, and net_graph
provides more performance metrics on screen.
📁 Boost FPS Using a Config File
Create an autoexec.cfg
file and add these lines:
fps_max 0
cl_disablehtmlmotd 1
r_dynamic 0
mat_queue_mode 2
Save it to:
Steam\steamapps\common\Counter-Strike Global Offensive\game\csgo\cfg

-nojoy -high +fps_max 0 +mat_queue_mode 2 -novid +r_dynamic 0
+cl_allow_animated_avatars 0 +engine_low_latency_sleep_after_client_tick
These parameters reduce system load, remove useless animations, and set high process priority for the game.
