Hey guys. I am a mainly csgo player and with all the other videos of people with the same processor and lesser GPU's achieving higher FPS. I enabled OSD on MSI Afterburner and turns out the GPU and CPU are only being used up to 50%. I used to have only 2gb of ram and thought that that was a bottleneck and that when i get 8gb it'll be fine. My ram isn't even being used much but my CPU and GPU are still only at 50% usage each. Can anyone help?

AMD Athlon X4 860K
Asus A88XM-E/USB 3.1
Thermaltake Litepower 650w
Corsair Vengeance LP DDR3 2x4gb kit
Nvidia GEFORCE GTX 1050TI MSI GamingX 4gb
Seagate Barracuda 7200RPM 500gb
Win10 Unactivated
 
Solution
Total cpu usage is meaningless, are any individual cores hitting 100%? From memory I think CS GO can only use 1 or 2 threads so it physically cannot us 50%-75% of your cpu.

I am getting roughly 100FPS on Dust 2 and Mirage and 200 on 1v1 maps. i have disabled vsync and made everything at low to medium at 800X600. also motion blur and other stuff like that are turned all the way down.
