Honestly, it could just be your ISP being inconsistent. If the usual fixes like checking your connection, updating drivers, and lowering settings don't work, it might be time to give them a call.

I had this problem until I moved CS:GO to my SSD. Game runs smooth as butter now, might help if you have an SSD.
