Optimizing CS:GO is a game changer! Start with adjusting your video settings. Lowering your resolution and graphical settings can dramatically increase FPS, making gameplay smoother. Also, tweak your launch options through Steam. Adding commands like '-high' boosts CS:GO's priority on your CPU, helping with performance. And don't forget about your PC itself – keeping your drivers up-to-date and ensuring your system is free of malware can also help CS:GO run better.

Honestly, just play on low settings. CS:GO pros don't rely on flashy graphics. It's all about that sweet, sweet frame rate. Keep it simple.

Don't listen to anyone telling you to just drop all your settings to low. Balancing performance and visual clarity is key. You need to see enemies clearly! Experiment with your settings. Start low, then slowly increase until you find the sweet spot between performance and good graphics.

I discovered turning off background processes and optimizing your PC's power plan for performance made a huge difference for me. CS:GO runs way smoother now. Also, invest in a good gaming mouse and keyboard; it won't 'optimize' the game per se, but it'll improve your reaction time and comfort, which feels like a game optimizer to me!
