Counter Strike Global Offensive frame rate issues

Counter Strike Global Offensive frame rate issues - Chopping Boards Near Oven Under Hood

When I am playing CSGO I never used to lose frames, but ever since a few days ago, yes all the drivers and game is up to date, I started to lose frames going from 160+ fps drop down to 25-40 fps when I look or shoot at someone. Any ideas why? I tried to delete and redownload the game and it didnt work

Best Answer

Verify Game Files

Clutching at straws here, but have you tried 'Verifying Integrity of Game Cache'? Not sure if this will help but worth a shot:

Steam article on how to do this:

Console Command

Found this on a reddit thread:

This is most likely your computer loading textures on the fly. There is a config option to force preload all textures instead of loading on the fly, cl_forcepreload 1. Try adding that to your config or just enter it into the console.

Another Possible Fix

If you open net_graph you will probably see a lot of choke the moment an enemy gets close to you. Try to use the command 'rate 80000' if your playing mm and if you play on 128 tick use 'rate 128000' and see if that resolves the issue.

You may have to enter this command every time you play but at least at makes the game playable.

Sound Drivers

I know it sounds strange but the game may be having trouble loading the sounds in game, ensure that your sound drivers are all up to date

External software

If you are running any external software that affects sound or maybe software that captures gameplay, try playing the game without it and see if that helps.

Summary

This seems like an issue that will pop up for people for hundreds of different reason so my advice, if none of these work, is to just take a look around at different forums and articles, try all of the different fixes and hope for the best.

Hope I helped, good luck.

How do I fix my CS:GO frames?

The problem might be with the video settings. Keep the settings on low or medium depending on your convenience. If medium settings gives around 50\u201360 fps then it's fine. Otherwise play on low settings.
