Quick tip (can help make csgo more smooth!)

[Thút Thít]

As we all know csgo has made fps_max 400 by default, but it is still worth changing it back to fps_max 300, especially when you are sure that your computer can not reach 400 fps fully. This can reduce the input lag and stuttering while playing!

fps max 0 makes the most sense.

The only reason to use a fixed fps cap is when the PC has very high fps differences depending on what's going on, but then you don't use 300 but an fps limit which "calms down" the fps drops.

Example: Max fps 230, fps drops to 140, then it makes sense to use an fps cap around 170~.

Better to use fps_max 999 then. Don't see how changing the fps limiter 100 fps would change anything in a source 1 engine game

Thanks for the suggestions, that was just from my own experience. Gotta try out fps_max 0 then, until now I have been kinda sceptical of that. I see there is also a case for fps_max 350, because it is something in the middle of the two options.

Fps max 0 usually gives a slight fps boost for some reason in that engine. And other than the reason I explained (or when fps max 0 makes issues for some reason) there is no reason to limit the fps to 300, 350 or 400 and you can use 999 as LaGgls said.

It's depend you will get more fps on fps_max 0 but that can give input lag and fps lost so the best it's 999 bc it won't give you any problem. But fps_max 0 it's a bug that could and could not happe to you so it's a gambling. Like CSGO are bc sometimes CSGO doesn't work like it should and sometimes work without problem for a game to be this old and still have huge bugs and exploits with no major update that could break anything it's pretty funny how CSGO can be this big still haha

Thanks a bunch again. That would likely made my gameplay better.
