The way Vsync works inherently introduces input lag. Turn it off

I monitor frame rate and it definitely stays flat at 144hz with v-sync on. Still my questions stays there that if v-sync at this high refresh rate results in an input lag?

Input lag will be very hard to notice.. The issue with csgo and capping frame rate is you effect your latency hit reg etc
The way source engine updates packets to server and players is based on frame rate and connection.. So playing against someone running 300fps vs 144fps will effect you..

Had spare money on my account, bought 12 cases and this is what I got

Man I love Gaben ****ing me in the ass (y)

Apparently the chances to unbox a knife are .44 percent.

Boxes are so pointless given the current drop rates.
The new Nuke is so lush.

No thanks, to be fair I would rather not play at all than play on low settings

I thought it was the norm to play on low settings???

Amd here playing on low settings and no trouble so far. just had a match and 2 team mates where having disconnect issues.

seems a bit random at the moment.

There's not that much difference at all between low and high in all honesty.

Just change the "shaders" setting to Medium and leave everything else - that worked for me with AMD card

That's why I see the person that killed me only after I am lying flat on the floor

Thanks guys, v-sync is gonna be off from now on. Shall I also turn off the FXAA as I am using 8X MSAA?

shankly1985 · 19 Feb 2016 at 16:05

Msaa I never used it on csgo so not sure if it will have any effect

Out of curiosity, what type of arm positioning do you guys use?

I'm currently using whole forearm on desk for my mouse arm + my wrist on the desk for keyboard.

I have been trying out just wrist on desk and elbow on chair although i need to change sens slightly.

Curious what you guys use!

I use elbow on chain wrist on the desk. The desk and arm are at the same height.

Can anyone advise please on this

http://counter-strike.net/operationwildfire

I don't see a buy button? It says "play through June 17" do they mean released June 17?

Racked up over 3K hours of CS but not really played much now for a number of years.

The thought of some co-op might be good fun though. Is the co-op Vs CPU?

Log in CS:GO and buy it from the main menu. You can buy it now and play the operation until June 17.

Okay thanks.

talk about carrying a team between 2 of us.

Also included a nice 1 v 3 finish for the 15-15.

What's the best for clipping/video etc whilst playing?

silversurfer · 21 Feb 2016 at 12:04

lol well done. send me invite just in case Im not afk if you need one more in a lobby.

For recording try bandicam because its pretty low load and you can upload it straight to youtube though you might want to run it through movie maker if bandwidth is an issue.
I think the very best might be shadowplay for nvidia maybe as it'll pickup the past few mins in retrospect

All of my forearm on the desk but I need a bigger desk and also its critical theres no friction when moving your hand or it doesnt work. I should cover my desk in teflon I dont think wrist is better as theres no support, if I sit down for a minute in my coat I basically do that hover hands style

People get all sorts working for them, I definitely will change mine at some point

CLG lost bad to the aussies, Dazed picks it apart on inferno
I like what he said at the start, I prefer watching people who make mistakes

no nvidia card so will try bandicam Thanks

No idea what the hell is going on, But anytime I have Teamspeak 3 open, It lags me in-game on CS:GO, I can just load TS and not be on a server and still get the lag, it's like a timed jitter 1-2 seconds I can see frames skipping on my screen.

Anyone have a clue what's going on here? Annoying the hell out of me can't figure our what it is.

hey guys decided to start a youtube channel so would appreciate it if you would take a look.
the vids may not apply to most of you guys at the min because im doing a series for newer players on how to improve.

Um couple of points for your settings vid, you should use fullscreen setting with brightness at 1.6. Atm you are using windowed which is inherently laggy. Also NEVER use fxaa and if you can keep 300fps+ you "can" use MSAA but I wouldn't really suggest it unless you get a min fps of 300. I personally don't use it.

thanks for the info, i use windowed (well full screen windowed which isnt show in my settings for some reason) because i have 2 monitors and dont like closing the game down to switch screens,
i use a custom launcher for my cs that changes the res of my monitor to match the res of the in game settings
along with launch commands to play in that res in full screen boarder less windowed , at the min i get a solid 270 fps in game.
disabled fxaa now so will give it a shot thanks for the advice and thanks for taking the time to watch it
