Make sure your graphics drivers are up to date. Outdated drivers can cause all sorts of performance issues. Head over to your GPU manufacturer's website (NVIDIA, AMD, Intel) and grab the latest drivers.

Lower your graphics settings in the game's options menu. The big hitters for boosting FPS are usually shadow quality, texture detail, and shader detail. Turning these down can significantly increase your game's performance!

Honestly, just buy a new PC. If you've tried everything and your toaster still can't handle CS:GO at a decent FPS, it might be time for an upgrade.

Cap your FPS. Sounds counterintuitive, right? But sometimes having an FPS that's too high can cause instability. Try setting a reasonable cap in your game settings or through your graphics card's control panel.

Verify the game files integrity via Steam. Sometimes files get corrupted and that messes with performance. Right-click CS:GO in your Steam library, go to properties, then local files, and click on 'Verify integrity of game files.'
