Hi, I just upgraded my computer and I'm getting 150-160 FPS with settings all low on CS:GO. Here are my specs:

ASROCK Z87M EXTREME4 LGA1150 MOTHERBOARD

INTEL I7-4770 3.5GHZ 8MB LGA1150

GIGABYTE GEFORCE GTX650 2GB DDR5

I feel like I should be getting higher FPS, of maybe 200-300. Could anyone help?

You can get rid of screen tearing by activating adaptive Vsync in the Nvidia control panel

It also depends what settings and resolution they are using etc.

You could try your hand with MSI Afterburner and overclock your 650 (after reading up a guide somewhere) but you really won't notice the difference between 300FPS and 60FPS on your monitor which most likely has a refresh rate of 60Hz, you'd just be placing unnecessary stress on the GPU

You only need 60FPS or so for a smooth gaming experience unless you have a 120Hz monitor so might as well crank the settings up to high, you won't notice a difference in smoothness

Ideally you wouldn't want your card to be under the stress of rendering 300 frames, that's why many people use adaptive vsync (both to lessen the load on the GPU as well as getting rid of screen tearing)

The GTX 650 isn't really that powerful a card compared to modern mainstream cards also

hi, 60fps on csgo is kind of shitty, i really can tell the difference as my previous setup was 70-90 fps. i still get a bit of screen-tearing (if that is what it is called) as sometimes it drops to 120. some people i know have poorer CPUs and same GPUs yet they reach 200-300 fps. what should i do to maximise my computer? thanks for the reply!
