why CS GO Lags on i5 4th gen and 16gb ram?
I am having i5 4th gen and 16gb ram and 500 mb nvidia gforce 8400 gs card. After trying to lower the graphics settings and reaching to the lowest setting my cs go lags in a game play. I have set paging setting to system managed and approx 20 GB space is available in windows drive. I have multicore rendering enabled and texture filtering mode is bilinear,aspect ratio normal 4:3, however resolution i have set to 640x480.
Can anyone please guide me in resolving this issue.

It's something that is VERY hard to answer since it can be a stupid amount of things from your install to a driver incompatibility.
So try to find out: is there anything that you can remove that when you don't have that on you do not lag? Are your drivers updated? Is there an effect in particular that your graphics card just sucks at?
Examples:
- Recently I had problems with Apex Legends. Just seemingly random spurts of lag. But I was running Apex Tracker in the background. Desactivating it stopped the lag.
- On one of my old computers, I had a shitty graphics cards. After a little while, I realised that any dynamic shadows would kill my performance. So every game, I would need to go to graphics options and put shadows to none or the lowest setting. Everything else could stay medium/high, but if there was shadows, blam. lag.
For your problem in particular, I would go for a driver problem. You have a setup that if I read right, you should blow any requirements of CSGO out of the water. So something is misfiring.
But you might be in luck: CSGO has a huge community and tools to see exactly how your computer is trying to run it so search around, you might find a tool that can search and benchmark your PC to find what problems it encounters.

Why is my CS:GO so laggy?
Lag can appear in many forms, but the two main things that cause lag are high ping and low FPS. So, the easiest way to identify your problem will be to check those two. Start the game on any online server and type \u201cNet_graph 1\u201d into the console. This command will open a graph that will show real-time ping and FPS.How many GB RAM does CS:GO need?
But, it is recommended to get any of the available Intel Core i3 processors for a better gaming experience. The FPS game also requires a minimum RAM of 4 GB because a lot of memory is usually allocated to the game while playing it and having 4 GB RAM will ensure no memory leaks occurring during the gameplay.Is 4 GB RAM enough for CS:GO?
4 GB ram is enough to give you 100\u2013120 fps in CS:GO on lowest settings if you have a dual core 3 GHz+ processor and a GPU with memory more than 1GB.How can I make CS:GO run smoother?
To get more consistent FPS and smooth performance in CSGO, you must disable these unnecessary \u201cexotic animations.\u201d Doing this will not only ensure that the CPU is less burdened but also the memory. Your PC and games will become much more responsive and fast.Sources: Stack Exchange - This article follows the attribution requirements of Stack Exchange and is licensed under CC BY-SA 3.0.
