First off, gotta make sure your internet connection's as stable as lightning. Try using an Ethernet cable instead of Wi-Fi for a direct and faster connection. If that's already in check, dive into the settings of your router and give Quality of Service (QoS) a whirl; prioritize your gaming traffic. And don't forget, keep those background apps to a minimum - streaming and downloads can eat up your bandwidth faster than you can say 'Bomb has been planted'.

Close programs u ain't using, especially those heavy on the internet. Discord, Spotify, browser with 50 tabs open? Shut 'em down when you're playing. And yeah, check if your PC meets CS:GO's system requirements. An underpowered PC can mess with your game more than you think.

ISP issues? Sometimes the problem isn't on your end. Give your Internet Service Provider a call. Might be something they can fix on their side. Also, check if they offer plans with better ping specifically for gamers.

Just restart your router, man. Works like magic 90% of the time.
