CS:GO uses DirectX 9 for its graphical rendering! Even though it's an older version, the game is optimized to run smoothly on a wide range of hardware, giving everyone a chance to enjoy the intense action without needing a super powerful PC.

Actually, CS:GO sticking to DirectX 9 is kinda a blessing in disguise. It means you don't need the latest graphics card to get into the game. More focus on skill and strategy, less on whether your rig can handle it!

DirectX 9, folks. No need for the fancy DirectX 12 here, CS:GO keeps it classic and accessible.
