CS:GO 2 is here and although some miss the original, it's here to stay. Here's everything you need to know to boost your fps for max performance.

Counter-Strike: Global Offensive 2, or CS: GO 2, was one of the most long-awaited PC game launches of the year, with over a decade since the release of its predecessor. It’s the fifth entry in the Counter-Strike series, and a major one at that, with a huge upgrade to the game’s visuals, and some of its longstanding mechanics.

Recommended Videos Since CS: GO 2 is a competitive game, we’ll be focusing our settings choices on improving performance to minimize input lag and give the player the greatest competitive advantage possible. Many of these have carried over from CS: GO, and like that game, we recommend setting most of the settings to “Low.” However, there are some settings that actually give you a gameplay advantage from turning them up, so we need to highlight those.

Not all players care about aliased edges, but I do. To my eye, it’s one of the most obvious visual defects of running a game at low settings and I’m not a fan. It’s distracting and immersion-breaking, so I like to play games with at least 2x or 4x anti-aliasing to smooth out those edges. Turning it off does give you a slight performance bump, so decide whether it’s worth it for you.

You can boost frame rates by enabling FidelityFX Super Resolution , but some people find they can see the sharpening artifacts it creates. I don’t, so I’m happy to have it enabled to increase frame rates, but if you’d rather turn if off, the game plays perfectly fine without it. There are some reports of increased input latency when using it, but again, that’s not something I noticed. Play around with it and see if the added FPS is worth it to you.

The processor and graphics requirements here are some of the lightest you’ll find in modern gaming. The Intel Core i7 750 was released in 2009, and the first compatible graphics cards were released over 10 years ago. If you have any kind of gaming PC released in the past decade, or any kind of PC at all from the past five years, you shouldn’t have any trouble getting this game running.

For the absolute best performance with high frame rates, a powerful CPU is just as important. The best CPU for any game at the moment is the AMD Ryzen 7 7800X3D, although the Intel Core i9-13900K is also a great alternative. They’re more than you’ll need for even top performance in a game like this, but if you want the best of the best, they’re the tools for the job.
