How to fix FPS lag spikes in CS:GO
Best answer

Oh, the dreaded FPS lag spikes in CS:GO, always picking the perfect moment to ruin your clutch, right? First things first, give your graphics settings a thorough check. Sometimes, the game updates can reset them to crazier levels than your rig can handle. Lower some settings, especially shadows and effects, to give your FPS a little breathing room. Also, make sure your drivers are up to date, graphics and otherwise. Outdated drivers are like trying to run a marathon in flip-flops - not gonna end well. And don't forget to check your internet connection; a bad connection can sometimes masquerade as FPS issues!

Honestly, it could just be dust. Open up your PC and clean it out. Dust build-up over time makes it hotter, and heat is the mortal enemy of FPS. A little spring cleaning goes a long way.

Just cap your FPS. Seriously. Use the console command fps_max to set a limit close to what your system usually achieves. It's not about having the highest FPS but the most stable. Work smarter, not harder.
