Graphic settings are key! Lower them as much as you can tolerate for the best FPS boost. Also, close any background apps you don't need. They eat up resources that could go to CS:GO instead. And if you haven't, clean out your laptop's fans. Overheating can throttle your performance big time.

First off, make sure to lower your in-game settings. Drop the resolution, turn down texture and shadow quality, and consider lowering your shader detail. CS:GO isn't too demanding, but these tweaks can make a huge difference in improving your FPS on a laptop. Another tip is to make sure your laptop is set to high-performance mode in your power settings. This ensures your laptop is using all its resources to run the game as smoothly as possible.

Updating your graphics drivers can also give you a decent FPS boost. Manufacturers frequently release updates that improve game performance, so make sure you're on the latest version. Also, tweaking CS:GO's launch options can help. Adding commands like '-high' to set the game's priority to high in the system can make it run smoother.

Honestly, just buy a desktop. Laptops aren't meant for gaming, especially not for something as intense as CS:GO. You'll thank me later.
