Question Low fps on cs2 - what should I upgrade?

[djKrist]

i5-4670k 3.80 ghz
Gigabyte ga-h81m-h
Crucial 16 GB DDR3
GeForce gtx 1060 3 GB
SSD

What is the best upgrade to do that fits with my motherboard? Gpu or cpu? I have already tried all the settings, I really think I need to upgrade my hardware.

Thank you in advance

What does that mean - "low fps"?
How much fps exactly are you getting?
What settings are you using? What resolution?

Reduce resolution. Reduce graphics quality settings.

To put it blunt a new pc because upgrading 1 thing in your system leads to a bottleneck situation which doesn't really benefit you as much, long answer cs 2 is more performance taxing especially on higher settings than the former csgo. Your system seems quite old, how many frames are you pulling exactly? I'm making an assumption 150-250 on low settings @1080p ?

Yeah, i agree. That was a sweet system but it's showing it's age trying to run CS2 competitively.
Even a cheap-ish 12th gen build would be a massive leap.

Okej I was afraid of that. Everything is set to low in cs2, updated all the hardware drivers, followed different guides. Cs 2 is almost playble but the fps drops in combat with all the smokes and <Mod Edit> stuff. Max 160 but drops to 50.

What resolution are you using?
