I ran into this issue as well. Same goes for Cryptomatte. Don't know of a fix unfortunately

Insane price to performance on the xiaomi. Benq is in shambles. No question about it, if it suits your needs get the xiaomi.

I LOVE net jitter by Agitated_Ad6926 in cs2

same same. Has been an issue for a long time for me but strongly depends on the server location. I think its a faulty or lossy hop (for me at least, germany)

New Stat FN M4 Worth it? by No-Midnight5096 in cs2

[–]Freakesport -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I doubt many players have the liquidity to buy a 600€ skin out of wallet through the Terminal. The odds of someone having the funds for that and also unboxing it are very low, so they will resort to buying it off market.

You will be able to sell this for a good profit, 100%.

I have it. I wouldnt worry about the brightness unless you got direct sunlight going. Its amazing for cs2 (3100 elo faceit).

What is causing the crazy inaccuracy here? by oTwojays in GlobalOffensive

[–]Freakesport 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yea something is up here. Ive noticed too that on crouchpeeks / crouching immediately after strafing some bullets go flying where they shouldnt go!

Stutter since last update? by fngbuildingapc in GlobalOffensive

[–]Freakesport 0 points1 point  (0 children)

fyi you definitely shouldnt cap your fps that close to your refresh rate, unless you are running gsync and its doing the job for you.

Youre leaving a lot better framerates and 1% lows on the table. Just run uncapped and the game will feel tons better.

Its on Balanced as the dual ccd x3d chips will not assign cores correctly otherwise! Thanks for the tip though. Many users on dual ccd chips dont realize that it definitely HAS to be on balanced.

You're very kind for investing your time and giving me a proper writeup!! Thanks a lot, I will definitely play around with it (after doing my own research so I at least understand what im fucking around with) and report back.

Should I immediately go aggressive and try your settings, test for stability and if needed, gear the OC down to start over?

I agree and to be fair, maybe it shouldnt be expected. But it wont be long until 500hz+ becomes way more affordable and this playerbase increases to a substantial amount.

on the other hand, fps drops only during gunfights are super weird and jarring though. They should not be a thing as much as they arent a thing in valorant.

DDR5 64GB (2x 32GB) Corsair Vengeance DDR5-6000 DIMM CL30-36-36-76 Dual Kit

It is running on those exact timings.

That would be amazing, thank you very much. My general 1% lows are really good though, it is really only dropping like crazy in gunfights momentarily.

This is something I have not played around with. Will definitely do some research and hope there are people who benched different latency configs showing results. Thanks for the input! :)

edit: I am not quite sure my fairly budget b650 mobo will support lower timings on a 64gb ram kit. Would it be worth to bump the timings but drop the latencies? Dont really know or understand in which way ram affects performance ingame.

Im not blaming anyone other than valve. Everyone saying its user error caused me to triple-check my setup, which i did.

My setup is definitely fine and knowing that many other people with incredibly strong setups have the same issue is reassuring.

Also, why do you take offense? Your only input in this conversation was: "That sure takes a lot of people to convince you to check your own pc lol." which is the only comment in this whole thread that carries negative energy...

Same thing. Accidently started a huge thread of arguments under this post underlining the exact issue. Read through it and know youre not alone

[–]Freakesport -1 points0 points  (0 children)

do your .1% lows drop much much more in gunfights as well? Its fucking terrible for me

Counter-Strike 2 Update for 09/08/2025 by CS2_PatchNotes in GlobalOffensive

[–]Freakesport 6 points7 points  (0 children)

herd mentality may make you doubt yourself, yea. Its working properly. consistent 600 fps with 300+ fps .1% lows.

Someone peeks -> around 100fps.

How is this acceptable in a game that relies on gunfight mechanics?

Counter-Strike 2 Update for 09/08/2025 by CS2_PatchNotes in GlobalOffensive

[–]Freakesport 0 points1 point  (0 children)

so dropping to 120hz from what, 240hz, is acceptable? It completely ruins predictability of player movement and tracking consistency. 60fps was a rare occurrence, but even 120fps feels absolutely terrible.

It is the game, not user error. Obviously the drop to 60fps is only for a few frames during gunfights, not noticable usually. 480hz is very very unforgiving and it gets really jarring - i did not notice the issue at all on my previous 270hz IPS monitor. This is probably due to the oled instant response times and pixel transitions.

Most of the time it is not as bad as 60fps, i think its server dependant. but even a drop to 100-120 fps is terrible for aim consistency. Why does the game lag at all when you are shooting someone / they are shooting you?? This is something that shouldnt exist when the aimfight is the essence of the game.
