My var spikes and my fps drops in csgo after i played Shatterline

[Bobrito Bandito]

Hi!
I played this game 2 days ago, the game was lagging and i got like 20-30 fps after i chose low setting so i quit. After that I started playing csgo and i was lagging hard, like my fps dropped from 120 (i max the fps to 120) to 15-20 and my var went up to 40-50 making the game unplayable. Then i tried other games like Rocket League and had the same lagging problem but it was not that bad. I tried to play csgo yesterday but had the same problem. I tried everything, first i thought its the antimalware service executable, tried to fix it>nothing happened. I tried launch options, reinstall game etc, like everything i found on the internet. Now i reinstalled my windows and i stil have the problem. Can somebody help please?

Laptop specs:
Nvidia GTX 1660 Ti Max-Q
AMD Ryzen 4800H
16 GB RAM
512 SSD

check to see if Shatterline installed an anticheat and disable it to see if that helps

It had Easy Anti-cheat, i deleted that too before i reinstalled windows, but didn't work. Now i don't even have anything else on my pc just csgo, steam and nvidia geforce experience that's why i dont understand why i have these issues. Anyway thanks for trying to help me.

make sure all of the drivers are up to date since you reinstalled windows

unless you use/need the features that geforce experience provides you are better off not installing that part of the suite

geforce experience also has a game optimize feature that can cause problems in some cases

I deleted Geforce experience, updated my drivers with Driver Booster, but nothing changed.

I found the problem. My proccesor slowed down from 3GHz to 0.35GHz. I looked after the problem, they said it's mostly because overheating, but i was sure mine isn't overheating. I found the solution. I had to go to the special power management and then i chose processor energy management and i found the system cooling settings and i had to turn to active when it's on battery and when the charger plugged in, because probably my laptop thinks it's on battery when it's full charged, which is all the time. Btw thanks Eld3er for trying to help.

I have been having the same issue, after the latest update I am experiencing massive fps drops, seems to be affected "Half Life 2: Update" also. I will be playing a game, suddenly my 1% low fps can drop as low as 20, which causes stuttering. I have tried all the solutions, overclocking, cleaning my computer, removing files, verifying file integrity, editting registry, vsync, you name it....done it all the past 4 days...........only affects CSGO and HL2:Update......

Is your VAR spiking and then ur fps drops even when u play against bots or in workshop maps? Because if it drops then the problem is not server sided. I recommend you these solutions, that's how i figured out what was the problem. First open csgo in window and then open task manager and choose performance tab. Play in window and if the cpu speed drops from 2,5-3 Ghz to really low like 0.3-0.5 then you have the same problem as mine. If u really have the same problem as me and you have a laptop i suggest you to try this SOLUTION:
---Go to Power Options -> Change Plan Settings -> Change Advanced Power Settings -> Processor Power Management and there you have to set minimum and maximum processor state to 100%, and check the System cooling policy ---> it has to be active on battery and if its plugged in. ( The System cooling policy caused the problem for me, because it was set to passive when the laptop is on battery)

You should not use a driver booster program to update your drivers.

Just go to your motherboard site and download the drivers that are there, having a driver booster can ♥♥♥♥ up the performance really hard

Using driverbooster is your problem
