thanks in advance

So what?

As far as I know, if you reduce your resolution and see no fps gain then that points to your cpu being the bottleneck.
Sorry for bumping. You man still don't know that multi-core rendering is currently not supported for years? Are you living under a rock?

Man Sound, i'm sorry but you're actually wrong bcuz it actually increases fps if you turn it off. I don't entirely know what multi-core rendering is but based on my own understanding, I think it's used to make other processors to focus on rendering to provide higher texture quality instead of focusing on providing more performance. And you're calling everyone toxic and stuff when ur the one insulting everyone =l

I know I'm necroposting but I found this thread when looking for information to share with someone about why multi-core rendering makes the game work faster and the amount of misinformation here is astonishing.

CS:GO is an incredibly old game and was released during a time where single and dual-core processors were still normal. The game was designed with these systems in mind. Multi-core rendering was added so that the game could take advantage of systems with 2+ processor cores while not ruining the performance on systems with single-core configurations. In 2015 when this thread was started it would have been more common for multi-core rendering to improve performance but this wouldn't have been true across the board. Today in 2019 there are very few reasons why you wouldn't want multi-core rendering enabled. Anyone who tells you that it will make your game slower either has an *incredibly* old computer or doesn't have any idea what they're talking about. If the setting only made your game slower or provided no tangible benefit to most people they wouldn't include it or it would be turned off by default. Valve knows what they're doing and who plays their game. That's why it's turned on, because they know better.

tl;dr: multi-core rendering is probably faster for your computer. Anyone who says otherwise has a crappy computer or is an idiot.

I think it will help quite a lot!

It doubled my FPS, but gave me this despicable input lag

Multi Core Rendering will use "CPU" to render instead of "GPU" which is much more faster.
turn off multicore Rendering it will cause less strain on your CPU and will give more FPS.
Believe me I am from 3d modelling background and we do millions of renders and Always GPU is faster unless you are running a gt1030 on a 19-9900K.

Use it if you have a multi core proccessor or else turn it off . Multi core rendering allows all of your cores take part of the rendering instead of just a single one . Most cpu nowadays have at least 4 cores (8 treaded) and if yours is dual core then you should still take advantage of this but with the cost of some lag and other issues i won't bother mention .It all depends on your cpu in the end so try out both options and see what works for you .

Edit : oh and using gpu rendering is almost in every case better than using your cpu , most games force it regardless so ...cpu rendering is more like for in old games and emulators and the sort.

No. That's completely false. Multi-Core Rendering allows the game to take advantage of more than 1/2 cores on the CPU. It even states it when you hover over the setting :steamfacepalm:

It improves performance by sharing the load throughout the CPU thus putting less strain on a single core which will boost performance.
