CS:GO

[theereal]

So, im just wondering before i start digging and helping this guy out is it possible to max out CS:GO at 1280x1024 with 200+fps on a 200$ budget?

[PineappleHolidays]

yes

my laptop with a first gen i3 gets 40-80

[rishabhchugh13]

CS:GO isn't very GPU intensive at all, but why do you need 200+ fps as most lower res monitors won't have a refresh rate higher than 60Hz. For $200, you might have to look 2nd hand to get decent specs.

[WereCat]

Yes but maybe not with a new parts. You will get so much more if you will get used parts.

Jesus that's sad imo, ruining an experience to try and gain an advantage.

Competitive gaming just confuses me!

For MAX FPS.

Why when you can't see above 60fps with most monitors?

[WereCat]

For MAX FPS.

Well.. I have 60Hz monitor and I have more than 200FPS with 16x AA and everything on ultra.

For MAX FPS.

More advanced visuals = enemies blend in more = harder to see enemies = u lose to dumb russian kids

As I said, sweaty nerds

Just so stuff doesn't get in the way? I just play as high as I can while maintaining 60fps

And when people shoot up the gamma and contrast,

When people play in 4:3 just to have a "larger hit box" makes me want to stab a kitten tbh

CS:GO is the game where i feel the difference the most . I can feel even if you have a fps dip from 150 to 130 , even on a 60hz monitor

It doesent... maybe it is different on crapy monitors with poor colors? I have no problem recognizing enemies in shadows or enviroment with simmilar color to the enemy.

I love to laugh at the competitive gamers though, but I always thought gaming was for fun, people take it too seriously
