To check your FPS (Frames Per Second) in CS:GO, you have several methods available. I'll show you the most reliable ways to display your FPS counter.

Using the Console Command: 1. Enable the developer console by going to Game Settings 2. Set "Enable Developer Console" to "Yes" 3. Press the tilde key (~) to open the console 4. Type "net_graph 1" and press Enter

This method shows not only your FPS but also additional network information. If you want to see just the FPS counter, use one of these alternatives:

Using Steam Overlay: 1. Open Steam while CS:GO is running 2. Click on "Steam" in the top-left corner 3. Select "Settings" 4. Click on "In-Game" 5. Under "In-game FPS counter," select your preferred corner 6. Choose "High Contrast" for better visibility

Simple FPS Command: 1. Open the console using the tilde key (~) 2. Type "cl_showfps 1" and press Enter

If you prefer a clean display without additional information, this last method is your best option. To disable any FPS counter, simply use the same command that enabled it but replace "1" with "0".

Additional Tips: • "net_graph 1" gives you the most detailed information • Steam overlay works in all Steam games • The FPS counter position can be adjusted using "net_graphpos" (1-4) • For better visibility, try "net_graphproportionalfont 0"

These methods work on all CS:GO versions and don't require any third-party software. Choose the one that best suits your needs based on how much information you want to see on your screen.

Remember that monitoring your FPS can help identify performance issues and optimize your game settings for a smoother gaming experience.
