Is CS:GO more CPU or GPU intensive?

Honestly, CS:GO loves a strong CPU. Basically, your GPU can chill a bit. So, yeah, pump up that CPU if you're aiming for those sweet, sweet frames per second.

GPU for graphics, but CS:GO is all about that CPU power, folks. Don't expect to run it smooth on a potato but no need to break the bank on the latest GPU either.

CS:GO is generally more CPU intensive than GPU intensive. The game relies heavily on the processor for maintaining high frame rates, especially in competitive settings. It runs on the Source engine, which is known for being more dependent on CPU power for tasks like handling the game physics and managing multiple players' actions simultaneously. That said, having a decent GPU can also help improve overall graphics quality and maintain smooth performance.
