CS2 Optimal Settings - Faceit
Posted: 23 Jul 2024, 13:18
After countless tests, cross-checking and long, intense and mature reflection, I finally understood (in all humility) how to configure the computer as a whole in order to have the smoothest gameplay, particularly on Faceit.
It is absolutely necessary that your fps be consistent and stable and that your maximum stables fps rate matches with your refresh rate. THIS IS THE SECRET!!!!!!!!!!
it is absolutely necessary that your fps be stable and consistent. To do this you need to find the lowest average of your fps, what could be better than a benchmark test on the Workshop map. For my part I have an average of 420 fps but the P1 tells me 200 (I am in native resolution 1920x1080 with everything on low, Nvidia reflex: off with only boost player contrast enable).
You take this base of P1 (200 in my case) and you add on average between 50 and 100 fps to have your fps_max rate as precise as possible and you adjust the refresh rate of your screen accordingly (very very important) .
let's take my case P1 at 200 I add 100 that makes 300 so my fps_max is at 300 (I have to adjust it according to the maps on Faceit, on Mirage 300 it doesn't move, on Ancient I block them at 250) but knowing that the 'anti-cheat is greedy and I absolutely want no INPUT LAG BECAUSE OF FACEIT I am obliged in order to have the crispest possible game, the most responsive without any latency to re-adjust my refresh rate of my screen at 100 Hz instead of 144 Hz otherwise the game is unplayable.
I touch on a sensitive point with this subject because Faceit's anti-cheat is so energy-intensive that it cannot tolerate playing on a refresh rate which is too close to the P1 value of the benchmark test.
For my part, to play on Faceit at 144 Hz without lag I would have needed a P1 value of 300 minimum, so I simply think i need a better PC.
No more latency on Faceit now I'am the Ferrari peak
