Hello there.

What I'm planning to do is to extend the following config for cs:go:

Asus GT630 1GB DDR3 GPU
Asus H61M-A MOBO
Intel Pentium G2030 CPU
Kingston 4GB DDR3 1600MHz RAM


about the game:
I run cs:go on the lowest settings, except for the Multisampling Anti-aliasing mode which is on 4x MSAA, the texture filtering mode which is on Anisotropic 4x and the model/texture quality which is on medium. My resolution is 1024:768 with 4:3 aspect ratio. Besides the in game settings, I've also done some stuff in the cfg configs, including the pre load of maps, bigger hud, max hud alpha and things like that. With the settings written above, I usually have around like 70-100 fps in deathmatch and a little more in competitive.

They say that in the case of source engine, especially counter-strike, a good cpu counts so much more than gpu.
I wouldn't like to spend more $ than 110 euros. What do you guys think?
 
If it is above 300W then I shall recommend you this 750 Ti, http://goo.gl/Rv7Z6P I have used this in a build before and is still performing swell. I tried playing CS GO on it a couple months back it performed well with my i5-3330.

I shall also add that you disable MSAA since at your spec you really wouldn't need it and will only slow your performance down.
 


how manny fps u get in 750 ti + i5 3330 please tell me ... low setting - resolution 4:3 1024x768
 


With many of the games i can run them at medium to high with some settings switched around.
CS:GO runs at 150+ fps at 1080p with everything high. I can share the options that are best to play on (so you can see shadows better, people in the dark are more visible, etc).
