Maximizing your FPS in CSGO is crucial for a smoother gaming experience! Firstly, make sure your graphics drivers are up to date - this alone can make a big difference. In the game settings, reduce your graphics settings like shadows, texture detail, and effects detail. Lower settings = higher FPS. Also, you can set your game to 'High Priority' in the Task Manager to give it more of your computer's resources. And if you're comfortable tinkering, adjusting launch options and config files can squeeze out extra frames.

Honestly, just lower your resolution. I know it sounds drastic, but going from 1080p down to 720p can massively boost your FPS. Sure, it won't look as pretty, but the smoothness in gameplay is totally worth it imo. Been playing on lower res for years and never looked back!

Another great tip is to keep your PC cool. Overheating can throttle your CPU and GPU, slowing them down and dropping your FPS. Make sure your PC has good ventilation, and maybe invest in a cooling pad or better fans. It's not just about tweaking settings; your hardware's health plays a big role too!
