The CS2 community appears to have found a fantastic (and, most importantly–simple!) way of boosting fps in Valve’s competitive shooter. By entering a simple launch command in Steam, players on Reddit claim to have gotten up to a 25 percent increase in fps, massively improving their game’s performance.
Reddit user u/smurfeNn posted a thread on Nov. 29, claiming to have discovered a new and straightforward launch option, -threads 9, which can boost performances by up to 25 percent. The user says the fix is specifically intended for Intel users, particularly those using older CPUs (going back to Intel’s 12th generation). The launch option fixes CS2‘s poor reading of one’s CPU cores, leading to severe underutilization and ensuing stuttering, low fps, and a generally unpleasant gaming experience.
