About Counter-Strike 2 on PC

Counter-Strike 2 is the clearest example of a CPU-bound game on PC. Once you are past a modest GPU, extra graphics power does almost nothing for your frame rate; processor speed, memory latency and background load do everything.

The practical implication is that a player chasing 300+ FPS should upgrade their CPU or tune their memory rather than their graphics card. Test in a smoke-heavy round on Mirage or Inferno, not on an empty server.

Covers competitive matches on the Source 2 build. Recommendations target the lowest, most consistent frame times rather than visual fidelity.
