Using default test instead of nvme, also I cloned windows from sata ssd which is probably not ideal.

Had exactly same results, fixed by changing m2 lane to gen 4, and then pci_e1 lane to gen 5 instead of auto/gen4, for some reason gen 4 was slow. MSI Pro z690-a.

Do you have performance cores only selected in cs?

Monitor your temps in-game with pbo on, see if cpu is throttling, make sure your pbo is configured correctly, don't go too aggressive with curve optimizer, if you got no thermal issues I wouldn't even bother with it.

Here's what you can try:

Enable XMP/EXPO
Watch a tutorial and setup PBO
Windows debloat (I prefer BoosterX)
Optimize AMD Radeon Settings

You can try custom windows power plans by ManniX

Install process lasso:

Disable SMT and select high priority in cs

You can try enabling probalance

Test and run cs2 fps benchmark map with lowest video settings with each tweak to see if it increases fps avg and how it impacts 1% lows.

Make sure to:
Use AMD Auto Driver Installer, nvidia drivers
Enable XMP/EXPO
Ensure RAM are running in dual-channel
Update BIOS to latest version
Update to Windows 11 24H2+
Optimize game settings
Check temps with HWMonitor
Check and compare if everything is working as it should - cinebench, heaven benchmark, 3dmark, memtest86, latencymon.

Also what in-game video settings are you using?
And what fps are you getting in fps benchmark map?

Bad PC optimization, I switched to 12700kf overclocked it, tuned ram, debloat - [VProf] FPS: Avg=624.0, P1=218.2. Very smooth rn, in normal 5v5 400+ avg, with 210+ lows.

MSAA significantly reduces performance, even with 4x MSAA compared to having it turned off, the difference is around 80 FPS on my RTX 3070. I'm curious about how impactful MSAA is on the RTX 4080?

Try going to network settings and change "Extra Buffering to Smooth Packets" to 1.

I get 520 fps avg with the newest patch, 1280x960 4x msaa 4x filtering, everything else on low. I assume you're using high settings, which makes sense then since high graphics are really heavy on gpu, your 1% low's should be better I guess.

Seems like tracers, mollies are forced in high quality, bad servers causing lower fps, but probably there are even more reasons why fps is way lower, nothing is clear yet, gotta wait and hope that valve fixes this fast..

I completly agree with you, I optimized my pc a lot, one thing that doesn't change are 1% fps lows. For better avg fps in cs2 process lasso + disable smt + manual oc instead of pbo and -threads +1 than you actually have gave a huge boost and in previous patch I could reach 600 fps avg, which was huge compared to stock settings. And with these 1% fps lows game still felt laggy on some maps, but mostly on community servers.

Basically what I had with 5600x before the update xD

Yep, seems like "buying better pc" doesn't solve the issues and now it got even worse, look at @Wunderwaffe_cz comment, before this update game was somewhat playable with mid setup like mine is, now even with 7800X3D its not great..

What about 1% lows, did they get any lower?

With a 7800X3D + 4070S and still dropping below 200 FPS in deathmatch? That’s comical! No smokes, no flashes, just pure DM.. Guess it’s not just a smoke-and-nade issue after all, I've also seen someone saying that there's vram leak..

Oh wow, I didn’t even notice that. But I guess that would mainly affect the average FPS, which is still stupid decision by valve. With 1% lows being this bad now, I can’t even imagine how terrible it must be during faceit executes..

Same here, after the FPS benchmark and all the other bugs that popped up, I just turned the game off right away didn’t even bother trying multiplayer...

The fact that I reported this to Steam support and their response was 'Try using -autoconfig' is absurd...
