CSGO Launch options

[Swegly]

Copy and paste your launch options and explain what they do. I am trying to make my game run better.

[McHox]

-high                       - sets the priority to high(like the one in the taskmanager but permanent)

-threads 8               - tells the game it can use 8 threads

-novid                     - no intro video

-language english  - changes the language to english

[exercutor5]

-console

Self Explanatory

 

 

-novid

No intro

 

 

-threads 8

Make it use 8 threads

 

 

-language bananagaming

 

+exec slam

I use SLAM for playing music and sound effects

 

-high

High priority in Task Manager

[EChondo]

-novid = No intro videos, e.g. Valve's intro(it's personal preference)

-high = Sets process priority to "high" in Task Manager so CSGO gets processed first before anything else, helps if you're maxing out your CPU a bit

-threads 4 = Dedicate 4 cores/threads to the game

-full = Fullscreen

-w 1280 = Width resolution

-h 960 = Hight resolution, I play 4:3 stretched, it's preference

-freq 144 = NA

-refresh 144 = This with Freq 144 just sets my FPS to a dedicated 144FPS. I have a 60Hz display, but CSGO has been known for input lag, which this helps with

-tickrate 128 = This defaults server tickrates you create in-game to 128, helps with testing and practicing

-nojoy = disables any gamepads/controllers plugged in so they don't interfere with CSGO, I have a Xbox 360 controller I use for Rocket League and whatnot

+cl_forcepreload 1 = This preloads the game's maps instead of trying to get you into the game first, supposedly it helps with FPS

+exec autoexec.cfg = This executes my autoexec config file for other commands and settings I use in the game.

If you're curios what is in my autoexec then;

 

This has all my binds, settings, mouse settings, etc., I don't recommend copying/pasting my autoexec for your own use since it's all up to preference.
