Counter-Strike: Global Offensive – CSGO HOW TO IMPROVE FPS IN CS:GO

Reinstall Windows

The first thing to do to improve your PC performance for Counter Strike Global Offensive is to reinstall Windows. Extra processes running on your PC is the main problem slowing down its performance. The longer you work in the operating system, the more processes you generate. If you reinstalled Windows long ago, do it again to minimize processes running.

We do not recommend installing any boosters or other optimizing programs. They just prioritize the game and close background processes running on your PC.

We will do it manually. Moreover, boosters themselves use much memory
