CS:GO 250-300 steady FPS PC config

[huku_steam]

Hello guys.

 

I've been playing CS:GO since it was in BETA, but the problem is that my fps is too low. I'm playing with about 70-90fps. 

 

My PC is old enough and cant actually be updated, since my motherboard says so.

 

Here are my current PC specs:

 

Motherboard:Gigabyte EP-45-DS3 
RAM: 2x2GB DDR2 800MHz Supertalent 
VGA: Sapphire HD4780 1GB GDDR5 
CPU: Intel Core 2 Quad Q9300: 2.5 GHz 
Power: Chieftek 650W 

 

My question is: What PC config should I get in order to have between 250 and 300 steady FPS. Note that my budget is 1000 euros? 

 

Thanks a lot in advance

Welcome to the Forum.

 

Is there anything else that you want to do with your computer?

Get a 270 and you should be fine, and a new psu

Thanks, Tedster. 

 

I would also like to stream my game. That's all.

My motherboard is pretty stone aged.. Not sure if I can put this 270 (what is 270 btw?) in it.

No. Counter Strike is a heavily CPU dependent game that probably won't up his fps at all. 

 

You should upgrade you CPU and motherboard. Buy the Pentium G3258 and a working inexpensive motherboard and you should be fine OP.

You don't need a €1000 to get what you need. Update your GPU to something a little more modern and that should do the trick.

 

If you want a new rig, well that is a different story.

A 270 is a graphics cards, you would take out your current one and put the 270 in and you'll have a huge boost in performance. A config isn't going to boost you up to 300 fps.

Guys, maybe I forgot to say, but I'm going to retire this PC completely. So I will need a good config for 1000euros for CS:GO : ) I plan to give this PC to my parents : )

when min 70 fps is too low....Ha wow.

1000 Euros is like so fucking overkill for csgo. However if you will be gaming create a thread asking what is the best setup for 1000 Eu.

Why do you need 250-300 FPS?

If you have a 60hz monitor, 60 FPS is enough.

There's no use of getting 250 FPS while you only have a 60 or 120hz monitor.

It responds much faster, if you try both, you will definitly feel the difference

why exactly do you need 300 fps?

unless you have a 300Hz monitor, which i highly doubt

for CSGO youre fine with a  400€ PC

That would be true on a 300Hz monitor...

If your game runs at 300FPS and your monitor on 60, the sent image will change 4 times without the user seeing it (therefore no chance to react).

yeah. 70 is always too low. 1000 euros is not overkill if youre playing the game at 1440p 144hz

I dont think you need 1000 to play csgo at 2k. Cmon..

[Columbo]

I get around 250-300fps myself playing CS:GO on a 60hz IPS panel.

1440p 144hz is demanding, and you always want the fps to be much higher than that so it doesnt drop when standing in front of a smoke. not quite 1000 but close.

Why do you keep adding the Hz lol. I still not believe that so I will search a bit.

Maybe that's what I should do. 

 

Thanks a lot for all answers, guys. Going to make a thread: Best gaming PC setup for 1000 euros. 

 

Mods, you can lock this one.

U dont need 200-300, no monitor can display that many FPS.

My gtx 760 maxed out 1080p gets 120-200.

Better requirememt is over 100fps at any time (fully smoked screen, 32 players server).

If u have 144Hz monitor then steady 200fps i can understand

GTX 770 / R9 290 will do the job.
