[r$w]

if i start the game in a third party app for fps sake will it trigger in a vac ban? this may seem dumb to you but im just tryna be cautious so please help me

Depends on the tool. Usually not.
Most of these are snakeoil anyway.
Maintain your system properly and you will have no need for such a program.

No. You would of course want to ensure you are downloading the right software.

im using smart game booster, its listed on steam even so ye my friend told me they can and will trigger a vac ban

Nothing will fix poor fps.

fix your internet connection and don't run background programs, reduce your in-game options to get better frames. that's all you ever need to do. Paying money for such a thing is nonsensical even if it's available on steam.

Smart Game Booster is basically available on Steam for install.

Why would it give you a VAC ban, that blatantly?

I mean, i put all type of boosters/lag fixes/optimization crapware under: snakeoil.

Want better performance? - Get a better PC, and if it's loading issues, get an SSD.

Assuming that the "Game boosters" you use don't interact with the games memory and or change it (which most don't) then you should be fine
