TIP

Nvidia Control Panel Tip ⚡

For absolute max FPS, open your Nvidia Control Panel. Navigate to Manage 3D Settings, find CS2, and set Power Management Mode to Prefer Maximum Performance. This stops your GPU from downclocking during quiet moments in the round.

Taking High FPS on the Go

Desktop players do not get to have all the fun. The mobile variants of the 50-series GPUs pack a massive punch. If you travel often or attend local LANs, modern gaming notebooks will easily run CS2 at 360Hz. Just remember to elevate the back of the device to keep your system cool.
