Just throw the whole computer out. LOL, jk. Seriously, update your drivers, especially your graphics card. Old drivers and CS:GO go together like oil and water.

Lower your expectations... and your resolution. Seriously, dropping your resolution can reduce lag significantly. Also, playing in fullscreen mode rather than windowed can help too.

Could be your ping. Try picking servers closer to your location. Playing on a server on the other side of the planet is like trying to play soccer via snail mail.

First off, check your internet connection - CS:GO loves to eat up bandwidth. Then, lower your graphics settings. You'd be surprised how much smoother your game runs when it doesn't look like a Pixar movie. Finally, make sure no other programs are hogging your resources. CS:GO needs all the attention it can get!
