Too many devices on your network can cause high ping in CS:GO. It's like trying to drive through heavy traffic. The more cars (or devices), the slower you go. Try disconnecting some devices or play during off-peak hours when the internet highway's less crowded.

Your ping's high because your roomie's streaming 4K videos while you're trying to play. Fact. Ask them to take a Netflix break while you game or upgrade to a beefier internet plan.

Firewalls and background apps can be ping killers. Try disabling them when you play CS:GO. Sometimes, it's the small things that make a big difference.

High ping in CS:GO? Check your internet connection first, buddy. A slow or unstable connection is the usual suspect. If you're on WiFi, try switching to a wired connection for more stability. Also, make sure you're playing on servers close to your location. Playing on distant servers can hike up your ping big time!
