So ill admit, CS2 never ran perfectly in windows either, and with everything having to be “shiny” and new all the time and with updates the game was bound to get laggy.

However I do wonder, is it the fault of my 15 year old amd fx cpu, or is it linux? I have a gtx 6700 gpu which should be plenty overkill for cs2. But ive heard cs2 is processor heavy. Im also still on ddr3, 32 gb.

    I don’t know which game you’re playing, not sure what CS2 is, as some other folks mention. However, if you install mangohud and run it via mangohud <gamename> — if this is Steam, in the game’s Launch Options, that’ll be “mangohud %command%” — it’ll show you CPU and GPU load in an overlay on top of your game.
