Nope, CS:GO configs don't automatically transfer between PCs because the config files are stored locally on your computer. But, you're not out of luck! You can manually move them by copying the files from your CS:GO folder (usually found in the Steam directory under 'userdata') and then pasting them into the same location on your new PC. Remember to backup your config files regularly, especially if you've fine-tuned your settings for that perfect headshot!

Short answer: No, they don't. You gotta do it the old-fashioned way and copy-paste the config files yourself. Make sure to grab the right one!

Actually, you can use Steam Cloud to sync some of your game settings, but not all config details like custom binds or specific scripts transfer over this way. For the full setup, manual transfer is the way to go. I've done this a few times when I upgraded my rig.
