Well, that's interesting. At least now I know for sure to set pre-render to 1 instead of "use application setting".

so instead of testing everything individually and independently how about i just do whatever it takes to make csgo supposedly laggy and then change each setting back until it measures fine

so tell me guys, how do i make csgo as laggy as possible without:
vsync
frame rate capping
running windowed mode/borderless fullscreen

Lol. now that I think of it, it's really hard to think of real changes that could actually effect the game, one of the biggest one that I hear for m_rawinput to be turned OFF is because team NIP have it turned off in their configs. And almost no one can agree weather or not m_mousespeed needs to be 1/0...

it could possibly be off because they are using the R-input DLL injector program, but who knows...

Edit: If you want to know what "Expectation bias" is google m_mousespeed :lol:

lol, you serious simon? :lol:
I never said he was shit, just incredibly inexperienced considering there is people with over 20k hours of cs experience. Of course he will get destroyed if he plays in a predictable way or static.

His entire premise about him only dying because he has a certain graphics card is laughable.

Most of the settings are indeed more performance-oriented than directly related to input lag. But I guess you could turn up FXAA/Anisotropic filtering, set pre-render to 4 or application-controlled with multicore rendering enabled, set csgo process priority to low, use standard input and acceleration, with non-6/11 and enhanced pointer precision enabled, use software/drivers specific for your mouse, have I/O background processes running without them affecting framerate (e.g. image/text editors), enable steam overlay, use GPU scaling to stretch a resolution to fit a foreign aspect ratio, have multiple monitors active with NVIDIA's multi-display performance setting, use display post-processing effects should your monitor offer any, DVI-to-VGA/vice-versa conversion, enable selective USB power saving and PCI power management in the advanced power settings, enable core parking, enhanced CPU sleep (C-States) and enable/disable HPET in the BIOS and cmd. Have multiple users logged in on your PC, change display DPI, have all onboard chips enabled, use standard scheduled tasks (Update, Defragment, Scan), ...
Just a bunch of stuff that generally is regarded as degrading the gaming capabilities of a system without directly affecting framerate.

I don't even know if it works but have you tried using the "custom resolution utility" and creating a new res?
