CSGO Low FPS Issue

CSGO Low FPS Issue - Sad young Indian woman avoiding talking to husband while sitting on sofa

I have recently installed CS:GO on my brother's laptop. Specifications are as below:

Acer Aspire 5745PG
Core-i3, 4GB Ram, 2nd Generation, Nvidia GT-310M.

Game runs a little slow after playing up to 30 mins. On Start Game runs ok, but with fps 20-30. I could not understand why this is happening. Game runs smooth on 20-30 FPS. But after playing 30 min, the performance goes down.

How can I fix this?



Best Answer

On top of your laptop not having the power to actually run it at higher fps, it's also overheating, which causes your cpu/gpu to throttle, which results in lowered fps.

There's a few things you can do to potentially alleviate the issue:

  1. Clean the laptop from all the dust inside
  2. Get a laptop fan mat (a mat with extra fans that you put your laptop on for extra cooling)
  3. Both of the above

Why is my FPS so low in CS:GO?

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.
