In CS:GO, 'tick' refers to the server update rate. A 64 tick server updates 64 times per second, and a 128 tick server doubles that, updating 128 times per second. This means 128 tick servers can offer smoother and more accurate gameplay experiences. They are especially favored by competitive and professional players because they allow for more precise shooting and movement.

Simply put, 64 tick is budget-friendly but not as smooth, and 128 tick is like the VIP experience in CS:GO. More ticks = better game feel.

128 tick is overrated. Played both and barely see the diff. 64 tick does the job unless you're going pro.
