In general, having more RAM can help increase FPS in CS:GO, but only up to a point. CS:GO isn't that demanding on memory compared to other system components like CPU or GPU. If you have at least 8GB of RAM, you're mostly set for CS:GO. However, if you're running other apps in the background, more RAM could prevent those from eating into the resources CS:GO needs, potentially smoothing out your gameplay experience.

Nope, throwing RAM at CS:GO like it's confetti won't magically boost your FPS to the sky. Focus on GPU and CPU upgrades for real performance gains.

Absolutely, from my experience, upgrading from 4GB to 8GB of RAM made CS:GO much smoother. Less stuttering and shorter loading times definitely felt like an FPS boost during intense matches!
