Raw input in CS:GO or Counter-Strike: Global Offensive, basically tells your game to ignore any other input information from your operating system or any software and just take the movements directly from your mouse. This means more accurate aiming cuz there's no extra smoothing or acceleration from Windows messing with your precision.

Raw input? It's the secret sauce for your aim. Turns all the unnecessary input processing off and lets your mouse and game have a direct convo. Pure, unadulterated mouse movement!

Just turns off the annoying mouse acceleration and makes your aim more consistent. It's like telling your game, 'Hey, only listen to my mouse, not the extra bells and whistles from the OS.'

Overrated. Just adjust your Windows settings properly and you won't need it. 🙄
