Hot take: It's not your internet, it's the CS:GO servers. I've had perfect internet but still got ping spikes. Sometimes the servers just have a bad day.

Ping spikes in CS:GO can be super annoying, and they're usually caused by issues with your internet connection. Make sure nobody else on your network is streaming or downloading large files. If you're on WiFi, try switching to a wired connection. You might also wanna reboot your router - sometimes it's just that simple.

I've noticed my ping spikes whenever my roommate starts streaming on Netflix. Sharing a network can really affect your game. Switching to Ethernet fixed it for me though!

Check if you're connected to the closest server. Playing on a server far away from your location can cause high ping and spikes.
