How to get more FPS on CS:GO with a GTX 960

Honestly, just drop everything to low or off, except maybe your resolution if you really can't stand the pixelation. CS:GO is all about that smooth framerate; graphics are secondary. Also, make sure nothing's running in the background eating up your resources.

First off, make sure to lower your graphics settings in CS:GO. Dropping shadows, effects, and shader details can significantly boost your FPS. Also, consider lowering your resolution; it might not look as crisp, but your gameplay will be smoother. Another tip is to update your GPU drivers regularly, as Nvidia often releases optimizations for games. Lastly, tweak your Nvidia Control Panel settings for CS:GO, setting the Power Management to 'Prefer maximum performance' and Texture Filtering to 'High performance'.

Might sound weird, but clean your PC too! Dust can throttle your performance by overheating your components, including your GTX 960. So, a little spring cleaning can sometimes give you a surprising FPS boost.

Upgrading your hardware is the only real way to get a significant FPS boost. A GTX 960 is pretty old, so consider that.
