Quick tip: Add '-noborder' in the launch options along with '-windowed' to play without the annoying window border. Your game will look cleaner and you'll feel like a real hacker.

Honestly, just play full screen. Windowed mode drops your FPS and makes your game look like a PowerPoint presentation from 2007.

Launching CS:GO in windowed mode is easy peasy! Just right click on CS:GO in your Steam library, go to 'Properties,' then hit 'Set Launch Options.' Type in '-windowed' (without the quotes) and click 'OK.' Next time you launch the game, it'll pop up in windowed mode, letting you multitask like a pro!

I play in windowed mode to keep an eye on other stuff, and it's not that bad. Just add '-windowed -noborder' in the launch options. Works like a charm and you can easily alt+tab to your heart's content.
