Not much really, CS:GO is pretty efficient with internet usage. Typically, you're looking at about 80-150 KB/s during a match. Just make sure your connection is stable, as ping and packet loss matter more for a smooth experience than raw bandwidth.

Honestly, it's less about how much and more about how stable. CS:GO can run fine on a decent broadband connection, but if your net is dropping packets like hot potatoes, you're gonna have a bad time. Aim for stability!

You don't need much. I've played on a 5mbps connection without issues. It's more about your ping and stability!

A lot of folks miss this, but your internet speed isn't the only hero in the CS:GO arena; it's your ping that really matters. Lower is better. So, while CS:GO doesn't need NASA-level internet, it does need stable and quick-response connection.

CS:GO more like CS:NO if you're using dial-up. But seriously, any modern broadband will do, just keep an eye on that ping.
