UPDATE 04|2025 SPRING CLEANING! | Fix all stutter/lag FPS input delay issues !

[.xite~]

Fixed all my CS2 problems by doing the following:


I tried every fix I could find on Reddit, YouTube, TikTok... and I think I finally solved it.

1. Clear Shader Cache
Open the Windows search bar, type "Disk Cleanup", and run it.
Check the box for DirectX Shader Cache and click OK.
Follow the prompts to delete the files.

2. Restart your computer

4. Verify Game Files
Open Steam, right-click on CS2 > Properties > Installed Files > Verify integrity of game files.
Let that run in the background while doing the next steps.



Optional (but helped me too):
I removed everything from my autoexec, except for my key binds (grenades, etc.).
New location for autoexec:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Counter-Strike Global Offensive\game\csgo\cfg

UPDATE !!!!!!!! : Still getting 1% Low FPS drops? Try this!

Force Shader Precompilation via Steam Console:

Step 1: Open the hidden Steam console
This works in any version of Steam:
Copy this: steam://open/console

Paste it into your browser’s address bar (Chrome, Edge, etc.)

Hit enter and allow it to open in Steam
→ The Console tab in Steam should now be open

Step 2: Run the precompilation
In the Steam console, paste this:
shader_build 730
Press Enter.

Then, launch CS2 and run around in a practice match for a few minutes.
Let Steam build your shaders while you grab a coffee or snack.

Enjoy the smoother performance!

Hope this helps others struggling with CS2 like I was. 🙌

I can't believe that this not only actually works, but Valve hasn't ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ fixed it yet LOL

Was driving me nuts, felt like 2/3rds of my bullets were hot air and I'd stutter in my movement constantly. Shader cache fixed it instantly.

Do you need to write shader_build in the hitten console every time u launch the game, or is it permanent from the first one ? :)

I did this today (28th of May) and it worked. Yesterday I had MAX 200 FPS on Vertigo, and spiked down to 3-4 FPS with stutter atleast once per round. Today I'm sitting on solid 200+ fps anywhere I run and no stutters. Hopefuly I dont have to do this every day and it stays at this until next update when Steam ♥♥♥♥♥ up again
