people have literally requsted this for years but I felt I didn't have anything interesting/new to add so I didn't make it. This time around I did as much research as I could into what are the actual best CSGO Settings and some things that other videos didn't touch on in regards to visibility settings, keybinds, fps optimization, resolution, and that type of thing. hopefully this tells you something you didn't already know.

This video comes with perfect timing for me. What is a good fps and what is great? I'm getting about 400 max 270 min. Is a wide range a bad thing? Doing some testing in the AM for sure 👍 👍 👍
As far as sensitivity, the edpi you're comfortable with may depend on the mouse you use as well. I went from a heavier mouse to a Viper Ultimate (one of the lightest around), and although I could never get used to low sens arm aiming on the old mouse, I find it much easier with this lighter one. I assume it's down to inertia; it's easier to control something precisely when it requires less force to move it. So, don't be afraid to adjust your sens to account for your hardware; you might be built for low sens, but if your mouse makes it hard, then just bump it up a little until you replace it by desire or necessity.
Heavier mouse is more stable, so its double-edged sword. But, weight can be easilly removed so any mouse can be made light, or you can add weight if you wish so. Its not rocket science, its just piece of metal screwed down inside the case.
Here it is people. It's not really on just your mouse edpi. It's also how heavy your mouse then how rough and small your mousepad probably is. You don't wanna be playing low sens on a tiny mousepad cause you'd be swiping for days just to turn left and right.
Mr. Voo, at 5:56 the keybind you have mentioned for radar toggle is Bind "v" "cl_radar_scale 1.0 0.4" but it should be Bind "v" "toggle cl_radar_scale 1.0 0.4". Please edit it for the greater good :)
i stared at this comment to find the difference and finally saw it: Bind "v" "cl_radar_scale 1.0 0.4" Bind "v" "toggle cl_radar_scale 1.0 0.4" The second is toggle
Another Bind I would recommend is increasing the game audio by ~15-25% when you hold shift: alias +incvol "incrementvar volume 0 2 0.25; +speed" alias -incvol "incrementvar volume 0 2 -0.25; -speed" bind SHIFT "+incvol"
why doesnt this work for me? when i press the bound key its only zooming in? or did i missunderstand and you have to use 2 diffrent keyes? would make sense cuz i was confused when i saw that you can use 2 values
9:53 If you have the problem that sometimes you jump accidentaly while shooting you can use this bind to prevent that from happening: alias +shoot "+attack; unbind mwheelup"; alias -shoot "-attack; bind mwheelup +jump"; bind mouse1 "+shoot" (Change mwheelup with mwheeldown if you have boundit to mousewheeldown instead).

I grew up playing 4:3 from old versions of CS. But till about a year ago I went with 16:9 because on 4:3 the player models just moved way to quickly for me. So after switching 16:9, i could see an improvement to my reaction time when it came to players peeking. Now I do sometimes switch to 16:10, more specifically 1650x1080. But that's only if I want slightly wider player models, compared to 16:9.
tbh i love 16:9 but i find it so hard to focus on the middle of my screen, i play 4:3 bb! can't deal with stretched player models moving at the speed of light
Few more points about resolution: 4x3 runs better across the board, since FoV matters a fair bit. Objects outside your FoV won't be rendered. Also, 4:3 stretched misrepresents sound direction, since sounds stay unaffected even if your low FoV is stretched.
I woke up to this after going mental about should I stick with my resolution change or go back to what I used for the last year. This was perfect timing
To prevent the accidental mousewheel jumping, I use an alias script. When I hold down the alt key, mwheeldown is bound to jump. When I let go, it's bound to something else (but you could choose to have it unbound also).
If you're on a fullsized keyboard (with a numblock) you can use this bind "KP_MINUS" "incrementvar cl_radar_scale 0.25 1.0 -0.05" bind "KP_PLUS" "incrementvar cl_radar_scale 0.25 1.0 0.05" to zoom in and out of your minimap depending on the map size. Nuke for example is extremely small and you can't see shit with the regular map settings. Whereas mirage is bigger. Another useful bind I've been using for years is bind "ALT" "invnextnongrenade" it just switches between your primary and secondary weapon. So you will never accidentally draw a nade while switching weapons.
I have found a very useful keybind; voice_enable 0. I use this always when I don't need any more information from my Russian teammates when they have died. Then of course voice_enable 1 for the start of the next round.
if you want a crosshair nade lineup bind, try this: bind "UPARROW" "toggle cl_crosshairsize 3 1000" where cl_crosshairsize 3 can be replaced by your crosshair size value aka "length" in the in-game crosshair settings menu. If you press it once more it toggles back to your regular crosshair.
Just a note for the crosshair - I recommend new players to use dynamic crosshair and switch to static later. Reason for dynamic is that they can see their movement and impact of it on their aim (they will miss more because they are moving and not because their crosshair is not perfect).
If you want 4:3 and not a pixelated mess, you can create a custom res of 1440x1080 (if your monitor is 1080p) and you get full range on the Y axis but you stretch the game anyway, better viewing experience, same fat characters uwu

Bomb drop bind isnt for terrible teammates only. I use it when I have to pass a high risk location on the map. Dust2 long or inferno B site entry for instance. I throw the bomb, so when i get killed, the bomb can be picked up on the safe side. Also sometimes we have a bomb carrier or someone whosimply requests the bomb. This bind can really be a time saver, as you dont have to perform multiple actions on the keyboard. Last but not least, you dont need an extra bind to deploy the bomb. When on a bombsite, simply press “use” button. It will select the bomb automatically.
The input scaling should generally be done on the display instead of gpu since it beside the input lag also make the scaling a lot better, better clear image :=)
just a lil side note. for higher visibility and game awareness add the bananagaming language pack. makes all nades have diffrent colors in the chat and overall more streamlined text. been using it since 2016 and i have always felt like i play the wrong game without it.
BEST BIND FOR ME IS THE JUMPDUCK BIND where u press a key and it does the perfect duck and jump to reach some boxes in a single key.i bind it on spacebar.
i have played cs for over 10 years on and off with my jump always bound to scroll wheel up so i can bhop everywhere (space is also on jump) and i've never, NEVER accidentally jumped in a gun fight or had my scroll wheel randomly click over and do it itself
Tbh multisample anti-aliasing is the one setting you can increase sometimes if you have a bottleneck because it gets the game to use more GPU, because of this sometimes you get more fps
@@pratham9956 i didn't even notice my realtek audio manager wasn't displaying it's main hub before this. Had to reinstall the realtek driver, i found the setting tho
I kinda wish you talked about audio. I often miss footsteps others hear, but I don't want the game so loud that I can't hear my teammates while I'm firing. I don't know what settings to use to balance this out. Kinda wish the video mentioned it.
@@Ocerry1 It doesn’t prerender frames just due to AA, sure it’s slower but it’s just a post processing effect, maybe it lowers your fps by like 2-5% but unless your compter is really bad it doesn’t make more than maybe +1ms of input lag.
@@alvesvaren FXAA, by its very nature, withholds already renderd frames from you for however long it takes to apply the post-processing effect. Sure thats not a lot of delay but there definetly is delay. I just think its stupid to knowingliy activate artificial input lag for shitty AA that doesnt even noticably improve how the game looks.
If you would like a radar zoom toggle bind, here's one that works good: bind "h" "incrementvar cl_radar_scale 0 1 0.25" where if you press h each time it zooms more in or more out. Helpful for when you want to locate the bomb on your radar.
"-high" setting might be usefull if you got many processes running at once, then the computer will know that CS:GO is more important than them, so for example it might suspend other processes like Discord when there are not enough resources
I have felt the experience of having a high end computer as before the pandemic i went to lan cafes to play my games and was always MG than after i went to my home PC which is rather old and even with the low aspects and resolutions i have around 70 fps at best i went down to nova 1 but when restrictions got loose and i started going to lan cafes which had around 120 fps i had a 12 game win streak with my friends all the way up to nova 4 but than got quarantined again. So i believe for lesser PCs these settings will really play a big role as from 1-100 fps really makes a big difference .
Linus Tech Tips did a video on the competitive advantage of 800 dpi over 400 so I would recomend if you run 400 switch to 800 but half your ingame sens. The higher dpi will give the mouse slightly less latency
Thanks so much for the sensitivity, i had 400 dpi and 5 sensitivitet and when i lowerd it to 2 even though i had never tried such a low sense i instantly got better aim
Yay, that yearly video that will always have success :) Also thanks for doing the boring stuff, it's great for newcomers and people who're coming back to CS!
You don't actually need to have your autoexec in the launch options as long as you type exec autoexec in console in the game menu once (not everytime you open the game, just the first after you've added the autoexec or added anything in it) Another bind I think is quite useful at times is a toggle for voice_scale 0, so in case you get very loud teammates and you need silence for a bit you press it. The advantage of voice scale over voice enable is that you still see their names as they speak, which is a quick reminder in case you don't listen to them.
Sensitivity is a weird topic. I was playing on 1.2 for a week but noticed that I don't hit heads like I used to do. Then I went to 1.00 (with 800 dpi) it was too slow. In the end I ended up using 1.05 which doesn't seem significant but it did help quite a lot
You dont need that autoexe thing for jumpthrow just find workshop map called config generator and then you just click which button you want it to be in
I actually use spacebar to communicate in TS, but walk makes a lot of sense as well. Could've included the way I use it but figured it's an out of game thing so wasn't entirely relevant
im over here with 9k dpi I've been slowly lowering it, down to around 4k and it seems to work for me. with 9k I would miss a lot of shots because I either moved my mouse 1-50 pixels too far left/right and can't move my mouse onto their head as i can't nudge my mouse soft enough to move it onto their head. On the other hand, I got really good at flicks. It almost looks like aimbot because I just see an enemy and move and click onto their head/awp them so fast. and when it happens its very satisfying. (some days I can hit every shot and others I can't hit the broad side of a barn) lowering my dpi did seem to help with consistency. I wont be disabling core 0 but I will try -high.
I've been using 240hz for the past 6 months... so I thought. I have been wondering why my CS feels so clunky compared to before and today I found out that it was on 60hz and not 240...
I've got more than 5k hours of playtime in csgo and use the scroll wheel to go thru my weapons. I know it sounds stupid but I got so used to it that I'm insanely good at it. My mouse has really nice and pronounced steps on the scroll wheel so I can feel exactly how many steps I need to do to get to my nades and everything else fast and without thinking. Scrolling up from the primary weapon gets you to the bottom as well so I pull out my knife by scrolling up one step.
I can respect that... nothing wrong with it. I used to swap weapons and utility with the scroll wheel as well (in addition to numbers). It was fine. But now scroll-wheel-up is JUMP for me (space is still jump as well!). I use keyboard numbers and letters for weapons+utility. Playtime 1086 hours x)
200, source engine is designed to run above 200fps. Below that it gets inconsistent. 300-unlimited is better though. I personally dont notice a difference above 300 fps anymor but you can notice a difference between 200 and 300fps
Resolution deserves more attention. Next to mouse sensitivity it is the most important setting. Comming from regular to stretched you will have some difficulty adjusting to moving targets because they move across your screen faster and you also need to also adjust crosshair placement when holding an angle but for me at least the added precision is worth it. If you're willing to try 4:3 stretched then no reason not to try 5:4 to stretch it a little more. For better resolution you need to create a custom one in nvidia/ati control panel, 1350x1080 for 5:4 and 1440x1080 for 4:3. Among people who previously argued that the sg and previously ump were bad weapons just because "iF iT wAs OP tHeN pRos woUlD usE It, pros wouldn't need years to notice that those weapons are objectively op" there is a common misconception that changing your m_yaw is a no-go. That's bs. You want both of the axis visually at the same speed, it doesn't matter that it changes the distances between certain things on the map, think of it as playing on an alternative map that is wider but the same height. Yes, this will change the distances you need to move the mouse between 2 specific points on an existing map and you will have to get used to it being new, but you will absolutely be able to aim better. You will probably want to up your sensitivity to still be able to do a 180 in the exact same mouse movement (sens factor 1.422 for 5:4 and 1.33 for 4:3) but you will still be able to aim way better than without changing it. I challenge anyone to test their performance with and without adjusting m_yaw. It will take getting used to on maps you know but on an aim_trianing map you should see much better performance right away. m_yaw 0.01546875 for 5:4 stretched m_Yaw 0.0165 for 4:3 stretched It's important to play around with those settings and find your favourite (even if it's just standard 16:9 resolution) early. Once you got over 500 or 1000 hours on one resolution and sensitivity you don't want to give those settings up easily
Thank you for such a comprehensive video Voo! I do have a question. I recently did one of those "perfect sensitivity" video things and found that my "perfect" sensitivity is 1.21 (using 400dpi); thus, my eDPI would be 484. Is this a realistic sensitivity to use or should I raise it?
@@AkArKing171 you cant. just switch to your knife and then back to your awp, you can quickly hit q twice to do so, or use 3 and 1 on your keyboard but do NOT do it with scroll wheel.
I play on 16:9 with 2k resolution and I got used to that. Tryed to switch to 4:3 but it makes the game feel alot faster and i don't have time to react accordingly. Does it make any difference for me to lower the resolution to 1080p for example ? I am asking that because my game runs at 320-400 fps with my go to settings and my monitors has only 144hz.
Great video. Just to add, there is a difference if a player has an amd cpu or an intel cpu. This changes some of the settings. The only one i know is that you should have multicore rendering when using amd. But there are absolutly! more differences :)
Nice vid, 1 more importent setting to change its default, pull out the picked weapon must be on "NO". and about the crosshair its a personal prefernce at the end, but it also depend on what kind of aimer u r, like if u r that kind of player who plays with high sen and depend more on spraying and transfering a lot i recommend to use a bit big crosshair, and if you like to tap more or shoot by a small bursts then better to go with a small crosshair.
bind “w” “+forward;r_cleardecals”;bind “s” “+back;r_cleardecals”;bind “d” “+moveright;r_cleardecals”;bind “a” “+moveleft;r_cleardecals” heres what to copy paste for cleardecals using any button of wasd
I just want to correct you that MSAA costs you a shitload of FPS, comparing x8 vs OFF. But, if you have a decent GPU, for example 1060/RX580 and upwards then definitely set MSAA at x2, x4 is the sweet spot. Unless you want the game to look jagged on the edges, which in terms makes the smoke lineup very difficult. Also makes the game extremely unpleasant to peek into since every edge just moves around.
I have a medium to large mousepad and need 2.0x 800dpi to be able to 180 from centre to edge to fight people behind me. The delay in lifting mouse for a full swipe across gets me killed. Then again, I have only won being ambushed from behind twice and that was in silver 2 matchmaking so maybe I would be better with lower sensitivity...
@@clifflenoir4323 That a good sized mouse pad, you can even go down to 800 dpi 1.1 sensitivity and still 180 with ease. I've got a SteelSeries QcK Large and thats the sens I use, I guarantee if you stick with that sens youll get up to gold nova and beyond
Common misconception: you DON'T need an autoexec or aliases for a jumpthrow bind. bind "X" "+jump;-attack;-jump" does the same thing, you only have to type it in console once and it stays in your config for ever as it is a simple key bind. The literal only downside to this is that it is a one button bind which is banned on certain pro or semi pro events. But for 99.9999% of us that doesnt matter
For anyone looking for quality of life changes, adding to the launch options. Use bananagamings language pack. Why? Becuause very grenade thrown by you and your teammate will show in different colors in chat. I had many situation where i set up my pc again, install cs, play and try to look for nades thrown(flashbangs for example, a great way to tell if your teammate wasted a flash orif the enemy tried to support an upcoming push). Its easy and the thing i install everytime i reinstall cs and my configs.
people have literally requsted this for years but I felt I didn't have anything interesting/new to add so I didn't make it. This time around I did as much research as I could into what are the actual best CSGO Settings and some things that other videos didn't touch on in regards to visibility settings, keybinds, fps optimization, resolution, and that type of thing. hopefully this tells you something you didn't already know.

i have played cs for over 10 years on and off with my jump always bound to scroll wheel up so i can bhop everywhere (space is also on jump) and i've never, NEVER accidentally jumped in a gun fight or had my scroll wheel randomly click over and do it itself
Alternative bomb drop bind: bind "CAPSLOCK" "use weapon_knife; use weapon_c4; drop; slot1"
Tbh multisample anti-aliasing is the one setting you can increase sometimes if you have a bottleneck because it gets the game to use more GPU, because of this sometimes you get more fps
This is absolutely true. I average 150fps on a 1060 with msaa off and 200 with it on.
@@s1mo-RBC I average 600fps on low
-high will cause connection issues, because you set the game process to higher priority than the steam/steam webhelper processes.
Turn on loudness equalization in your audio control panel. You'll never miss a footstep ever again.
This, plus you don't have to destroy your ears with Ak sprays

@@pratham9956 i didn't even notice my realtek audio manager wasn't displaying it's main hub before this. Had to reinstall the realtek driver, i found the setting tho
I kinda wish you talked about audio. I often miss footsteps others hear, but I don't want the game so loud that I can't hear my teammates while I'm firing. I don't know what settings to use to balance this out. Kinda wish the video mentioned it.
FXAA should be on! The antialisasing makes fences and things flicker less when moving, which can take your focus off the real enemies
Fxaa is something that guarantees you have input lag. Never turn on graphics options that withhold you already rendered frames
@@Ocerry1 It doesn’t prerender frames just due to AA, sure it’s slower but it’s just a post processing effect, maybe it lowers your fps by like 2-5% but unless your compter is really bad it doesn’t make more than maybe +1ms of input lag.
@@alvesvaren FXAA, by its very nature, withholds already renderd frames from you for however long it takes to apply the post-processing effect. Sure thats not a lot of delay but there definetly is delay. I just think its stupid to knowingliy activate artificial input lag for shitty AA that doesnt even noticably improve how the game looks.
If you would like a radar zoom toggle bind, here's one that works good:
bind "h" "incrementvar cl_radar_scale 0 1 0.25"
where if you press h each time it zooms more in or more out. Helpful for when you want to locate the bomb on your radar.
bind "h" "toggle cl_radar_scale 1.0 0.4"
^this also works great but you can try either or

"-high" setting might be usefull if you got many processes running at once, then the computer will know that CS:GO is more important than them, so for example it might suspend other processes like Discord when there are not enough resources
I have felt the experience of having a high end computer as before the pandemic i went to lan cafes to play my games and was always MG than after i went to my home PC which is rather old and even with the low aspects and resolutions i have around 70 fps at best i went down to nova 1 but when restrictions got loose and i started going to lan cafes which had around 120 fps i had a 12 game win streak with my friends all the way up to nova 4 but than got quarantined again. So i believe for lesser PCs these settings will really play a big role as from 1-100 fps really makes a big difference .
Same for me, I topfrag on Faceit level 3 in caffe but I only get 5-10 frags at home
Linus Tech Tips did a video on the competitive advantage of 800 dpi over 400 so I would recomend if you run 400 switch to 800 but half your ingame sens. The higher dpi will give the mouse slightly less latency
1600dpi is master race
Thanks so much for the sensitivity, i had 400 dpi and 5 sensitivitet and when i lowerd it to 2 even though i had never tried such a low sense i instantly got better aim
Same, one day a teammate told me I had high asf sens and I lowered it for the first after. After that I stopped sucking
As an ex-patreon and long time viewer, I have to say your content is getting better and better and I am loving it!
Thank you for this bro
Yay, that yearly video that will always have success :)
Also thanks for doing the boring stuff, it's great for newcomers and people who're coming back to CS!
You don't actually need to have your autoexec in the launch options as long as you type exec autoexec in console in the game menu once (not everytime you open the game, just the first after you've added the autoexec or added anything in it)
Another bind I think is quite useful at times is a toggle for voice_scale 0, so in case you get very loud teammates and you need silence for a bit you press it. The advantage of voice scale over voice enable is that you still see their names as they speak, which is a quick reminder in case you don't listen to them.
You can bind that voice scale option directly in settings, Valve put it in settings
Wow, this is just what I needed. I can actually play the game now that I'm not getting 40 fps. Thanks!
How? What made this difference for you? I wanna improve my game too, I have a lot of fps drops.

I personally use the radial menu for nade changing, I think it's quite fast and I don't need a bunch of different keys binded by doing so.
That's bad
Sensitivity is a weird topic. I was playing on 1.2 for a week but noticed that I don't hit heads like I used to do. Then I went to 1.00 (with 800 dpi) it was too slow. In the end I ended up using 1.05 which doesn't seem significant but it did help quite a lot
You dont need that autoexe thing for jumpthrow just find workshop map called config generator and then you just click which button you want it to be in
you need if you want it to be alt
A keybind I've used for a while that really helps me is Spacebar walk. I jump with scroll wheel and when pressing shift I feel less comfortable.
I actually use spacebar to communicate in TS, but walk makes a lot of sense as well. Could've included the way I use it but figured it's an out of game thing so wasn't entirely relevant
I thought about binding space bar to walk backwards so you can easily counterstrafe when moving forward
I have a duck jump bind om space. For jumping when you need that extra length, and crouchiness
im over here with 9k dpi
I've been slowly lowering it, down to around 4k and it seems to work for me.
with 9k I would miss a lot of shots because I either moved my mouse 1-50 pixels too far left/right and can't move my mouse onto their head as i can't nudge my mouse soft enough to move it onto their head. On the other hand, I got really good at flicks. It almost looks like aimbot because I just see an enemy and move and click onto their head/awp them so fast. and when it happens its very satisfying. (some days I can hit every shot and others I can't hit the broad side of a barn)
lowering my dpi did seem to help with consistency. I wont be disabling core 0 but I will try -high.
I've been using 240hz for the past 6 months... so I thought. I have been wondering why my CS feels so clunky compared to before and today I found out that it was on 60hz and not 240...
I've got more than 5k hours of playtime in csgo and use the scroll wheel to go thru my weapons. I know it sounds stupid but I got so used to it that I'm insanely good at it. My mouse has really nice and pronounced steps on the scroll wheel so I can feel exactly how many steps I need to do to get to my nades and everything else fast and without thinking. Scrolling up from the primary weapon gets you to the bottom as well so I pull out my knife by scrolling up one step.
lmao i’m exactly the same 3k hours and ive memorized the notches in the wheel
Noob
@@fica1137 :(
I can respect that... nothing wrong with it. I used to swap weapons and utility with the scroll wheel as well (in addition to numbers). It was fine. But now scroll-wheel-up is JUMP for me (space is still jump as well!). I use keyboard numbers and letters for weapons+utility. Playtime 1086 hours x)

So, what is the minimum fps that I should target with my graphic settings?
200, source engine is designed to run above 200fps. Below that it gets inconsistent. 300-unlimited is better though. I personally dont notice a difference above 300 fps anymor but you can notice a difference between 200 and 300fps
You forgot "cl_righthand 0" which is non subjective and using it not only makes you a better CS player, but also a better person in general.

"The COMPLETE CS:GO Settings Guide 2023" when it came out in 2021???
Resolution deserves more attention. Next to mouse sensitivity it is the most important setting. Comming from regular to stretched you will have some difficulty adjusting to moving targets because they move across your screen faster and you also need to also adjust crosshair placement when holding an angle but for me at least the added precision is worth it.
If you're willing to try 4:3 stretched then no reason not to try 5:4 to stretch it a little more. For better resolution you need to create a custom one in nvidia/ati control panel, 1350x1080 for 5:4 and 1440x1080 for 4:3.
Among people who previously argued that the sg and previously ump were bad weapons just because "iF iT wAs OP tHeN pRos woUlD usE It, pros wouldn't need years to notice that those weapons are objectively op" there is a common misconception that changing your m_yaw is a no-go. That's bs. You want both of the axis visually at the same speed, it doesn't matter that it changes the distances between certain things on the map, think of it as playing on an alternative map that is wider but the same height.
Yes, this will change the distances you need to move the mouse between 2 specific points on an existing map and you will have to get used to it being new, but you will absolutely be able to aim better. You will probably want to up your sensitivity to still be able to do a 180 in the exact same mouse movement (sens factor 1.422 for 5:4 and 1.33 for 4:3) but you will still be able to aim way better than without changing it. I challenge anyone to test their performance with and without adjusting m_yaw. It will take getting used to on maps you know but on an aim_trianing map you should see much better performance right away.
m_yaw 0.01546875 for 5:4 stretched
m_Yaw 0.0165
for 4:3 stretched
It's important to play around with those settings and find your favourite (even if it's just standard 16:9 resolution) early. Once you got over 500 or 1000 hours on one resolution and sensitivity you don't want to give those settings up easily
no1 cares
Thanks Voo. I never knew 16x AF added input lag.
I never lower this on any game as it has a
Don't use trilinear, I'm not even sure if the 8x/16x input lag thing is true, however if it is, use 4x to avoid unnecessary texture blurring
16x is not what is holding you in silver lol
@@hallowelt7534, yes, moreover, such players like Nico, Hunter, they always use 8 and 16x Anis
16x AF does not add input lag. ALBU Performance never said or stated this in his video either.
The only time I have 100 fps in CSGO is when the black screen comes up while the game is opening.
oh yes..
Damn that processor core 0 really helped man thanks!

Thank you for such a comprehensive video Voo! I do have a question. I recently did one of those "perfect sensitivity" video things and found that my "perfect" sensitivity is 1.21 (using 400dpi); thus, my eDPI would be 484. Is this a realistic sensitivity to use or should I raise it?

I play on 16:9 with 2k resolution and I got used to that. Tryed to switch to 4:3 but it makes the game feel alot faster and i don't have time to react accordingly. Does it make any difference for me to lower the resolution to 1080p for example ? I am asking that because my game runs at 320-400 fps with my go to settings and my monitors has only 144hz.
About Gsync , that is the video about battle(non)sense that shows Gsync or freesync can have lower input lag.
Me with a 60hz monitor: I don't have such limitations
You help me A LOT with your videos thanks A LOT
Great video. Just to add, there is a difference if a player has an amd cpu or an intel cpu. This changes some of the settings.
The only one i know is that you should have multicore rendering when using amd. But there are absolutly! more differences :)
i play with g-syc and v-sync on and also i capped my fps to 236. Low latency mod on also. Now it's briliant. Smooth as a butter :)
Lol, i have 2.5 k hours and i steal switch weapons on scroll weal!
Thats so op , as i think(:
Nice vid, 1 more importent setting to change its default, pull out the picked weapon must be on "NO".
and about the crosshair its a personal prefernce at the end, but it also depend on what kind of aimer u r, like if u r that kind of player who plays with high sen and depend more on spraying and transfering a lot i recommend to use a bit big crosshair, and if you like to tap more or shoot by a small bursts then better to go with a small crosshair.
Today I learnt that my texture filtering setting gives me input lag...
That makes no sense, has it actually been measured?
@@myownsite No idea but I'm not going to test it myself so I just turned it down, its not like you notice it anyways
@@yar2000 texture filtering is very noticeable if you know what to look for
@@myownsite Oh absolutely, but I'm not exactly looking at textures when I play CS so it doesn't really matter to me.
You can bind many keys to jump with bind mwheel_down "jump" or mwheel_up

Yea, that seems super curious
yeah... i like to play x16
Just going to say that G-Sync does not limit FPS, although you can limit FPS and enable G-Sync. Simply run G-Sync with an unlimited FPS.

I just want to correct you that MSAA costs you a shitload of FPS, comparing x8 vs OFF. But, if you have a decent GPU, for example 1060/RX580 and upwards then definitely set MSAA at x2, x4 is the sweet spot. Unless you want the game to look jagged on the edges, which in terms makes the smoke lineup very difficult. Also makes the game extremely unpleasant to peek into since every edge just moves around.
What about GPU 3080 RTX? How much for MSAA?
Yeah go up to 4

For anyone looking for quality of life changes, adding to the launch options. Use bananagamings language pack. Why? Becuause very grenade thrown by you and your teammate will show in different colors in chat. I had many situation where i set up my pc again, install cs, play and try to look for nades thrown(flashbangs for example, a great way to tell if your teammate wasted a flash orif the enemy tried to support an upcoming push). Its easy and the thing i install everytime i reinstall cs and my configs.
