One of the biggest complaints about the CS2 release is the poor performance of the game compared to its predecessor CS:GO. Many players have reported suffering from severe lag and load issues on their computers as a result of the game’s poorly optimized performance. However, while many of these issues are Valve-related, there are some tweaks you can apply to your game to make it run smoother and gain a competitive edge in terms of FPS and overall game performance. Let’s take a look at some of the settings you can change yourself:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Video settings<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Video settings:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Color mode: Computer monitor<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Brightness: 100%<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Aspect ratio: 16:9<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Resolution: 1920\u00d71080<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Display mode: Fullscreen<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Refresh rate: high<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Laptop power saving: Off<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The aspect ratio and resolution are mostly a matter of personal preference, but these are the most commonly used settings and are the default settings when you first launch the game. Some players also use 16:10 (1680\u00d71050) and 4:3 (1280\u00d7960), so feel free to experiment with different resolutions until you find the perfect one for you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Advanced video settings:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Enhance player contrast: On<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Wait for vertical synchronization: off<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Current values of the preset videos. Custom anti-aliasing mode with multiple samples: 4X MSAA \u2014 you can choose lower values for a minimal increase in FPS, but it will degrade the game quality<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Overall shadow quality: medium\/high<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Texture model\/details: medium<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Texture filtering mode: bilinear<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ambient Occlusion: Medium \u2014 improves performance and may provide players with an edge<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Expanded Dynamic Range: Quality \u2014 slightly reduces FPS, but significantly improves visuals. You can set it to a lower setting if you want to prioritize performance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Fidelity FX Super Resolution: Off<\/p>\n\n\n\n
NVIDIA Reflex Low Latency: On, unless your computer is not tied to a processor, in which case we suggest using Boost mode.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
