Yeah, you can cap your FPS in CS:GO and it's pretty easy. Just open the console during the game by pressing the tilde key (~), then type 'fps_max [number]' where [number] is the max FPS you want. So if you wanna cap it at 120, just type 'fps_max 120'. This can help make your game run smoother if you're experiencing fluctuations.

For sure, I capped mine to avoid overheating during long gaming sessions. Just hit up the console with 'fps_max' followed by your desired number and you're good. Helps keep things consistent.

Absolutely you can! But why would you wanna cap your FPS? Higher FPS = smoother gameplay, especially on a high refresh rate monitor. Don't cap it, let it run wild!

Yes, but think twice before doing it. Capping FPS can lead to input lag. If your rig can handle it, aim for the highest FPS possible.
