What does 1% low FPS mean in Counter-Strike 2 benchmarks?

The 1% low FPS measures the worst-case frame rate during gameplay, the FPS that 99% of frames exceed. In this benchmark, the average is 47 FPS and the 1% low is 34 FPS. A small gap between average and 1% low means consistent frame delivery with minimal stuttering.

Moderate 1% Lows

1% low FPS drops to 34 FPS, frame drops below 60Hz cause visible stuttering. RTX 3060 Laptop GPU usage at 100% is the bottleneck.

Critical GPU Usage

GPU usage hit 100% while CPU sat at 25%. Your RTX 3060 Laptop GPU is the bottleneck, lower graphics settings or resolution to increase FPS.

Hot GPU Temp

GPU peaked at 88°C, thermal throttling detected. Use a cooling pad, clean air vents, or limit FPS to reduce heat.

Critical CPU Temp

CPU peaked at 99°C, thermal throttling detected. Use a cooling pad, clean air vents, or undervolt the CPU.

FPS Limit 400

FPS was capped to 400 but it was not reached. Remove the FPS limit in Counter-Strike 2 settings for reliable data.

compressIs i7-11800H bottlenecking RTX 3060 Laptop GPU in Counter-Strike 2?expand_more

No CPU bottleneck. RTX 3060 Laptop GPU is the limiting factor at 100% usage, while i7-11800H has headroom at 25%. This is normal, most games are GPU-bound.

memoryIs 32GB RAM enough for Counter-Strike 2?expand_more

Counter-Strike 2 used 55% of 32GB RAM. Plenty of headroom for background apps.

thermostatWhat are normal GPU and CPU temperatures while gaming?expand_more

The RTX 3060 Laptop GPU reached 87°C and the i7-11800H reached 94°C. On the warm side, check your case airflow and thermal paste.

trending_downWhat does 1% low FPS mean?expand_more

The lowest FPS drops, your lag spikes. Here it's 34 FPS vs 47 FPS average. A small gap means consistent frame delivery.

boltHow do I get more FPS in Counter-Strike 2?expand_more

Your GPU is maxed out, lower resolution, turn down ray tracing and shadows, or cap your frame rate. Your temperatures are high, clean your fans, check case airflow, or repaste your cooler. Thermal throttling kills FPS. Check the Tips & Tricks section above for specific fixes based on your benchmark data, including background apps, driver issues, and hardware settings.
