Inconsistent Performance in Faceit Games: Hardware, Software, or Strategy Issue?

[beirut__]

Okay. So I went into the game with level 9s on faceit and made 40 frags. I literally knew the game is going to be great for me since the first round. Next game: 4 frags 25 deaths. It was literally impossible to shoot the enemy. They always had advantage over me in terms of timings and everything. Nothing changed. I just alt tabbed to find a new match and then joined the game.

I was doubting myself before, but this intrigued me so hard: if I am that bad, how could it be that im top fragging with level 9s and 10s? I couldnt connect shots no matter in which match, but now I am certain that this thing is not about me. When its all good, it goes so extra smoothly, I know how to take angles, I know how to prefire, everything.. it seems like there appears something which firsty affects your speed in the game, and then everything else.

Hardware and software and internet is not. I tweaked all the possibilities that could affect this. Now im thinking if it could be something so small and insignificant as in not alt tabbing nor leaving the game after match finishes? I could turn faceit ac both on my laptop and pc and join quoue from the laptop, so just join by typing in console what i read from the laptop. Does this make sense?

Yeah thats sounds really weird. Alt tabing could be the reason:

CS2 has really shitty coding so no surprise. Also if you have Ryzen CPU definitely turn on SMT, it will help drastically with performance.

Actually happens on Valorant too, found a way to make it work better by capping my 240hz monitor on 300fps and turning power plan to balanced but now that I got my 360hz back from service it's happening again and I'm still searching how to fix it on this one.

I have ryzen 5 5600x. Seems like I cant find that SMT in bios. I have asus prime b450m-a motherboard.

Tried this. And bro. Wtf. I cant believe whats happening. Last 7 matches over 30 frags. Tried it today also and the same thing. Is it possible that this could be fix? If it will last... Brother. I will make a statue out of your nickname and send it to you!

Edit: it is still the same after a couple of days.

Same thing is happening to me bro. I'm playing a couple of matches 23+ Kills next matches 10-18 8-13. I really don't know what's going on. Did you manage to solve that problem
