CSGO FPS Estimator – Calculate Your Game Performance

This tool will estimate the frames per second (FPS) you can expect to get in CS:GO based on your computer’s specifications.

CS:GO FPS Estimator

This calculator helps you estimate the frames per second (FPS) you can expect to achieve in CS:GO based on your system’s hardware specifications and chosen graphics settings.

How to Use the Calculator

  1. Input your CPU frequency in GHz.
  2. Input your GPU memory in GB.
  3. Input your system’s RAM in GB.
  4. Choose your screen resolution.
  5. Choose your graphics settings.
  6. Click “Calculate” to get an estimated FPS.

How it Calculates the Results

The calculator uses a basic formula to estimate FPS based on the input parameters:

  • CPU: Multiplied by 10
  • GPU: Multiplied by 5
  • RAM: Multiplied by 2

The base FPS is then adjusted based on the chosen resolution and graphics settings.

Resolution adjustment:

  • 1920×1080: No change
  • 2560×1440: Multiplied by 0.7
  • 3840×2160: Multiplied by 0.4

Graphics settings adjustment:

  • Low: Multiplied by 1.5
  • Medium: Multiplied by 1.2
  • High: No change
  • Ultra: Multiplied by 0.8

Limitations

This FPS estimator provides a general idea of expected performance based on typical scaling factors. Actual performance may vary due to other unaccounted variables such as CPU architecture, background processes, specific in-game settings, and more. Therefore, use this tool only as a rough estimate.

Use Cases for This Calculator

Estimating FPS Based on Graphics Settings
