How Counter-Strike 2 runs on the GeForce RTX 2060

Our estimate puts the GeForce RTX 2060 at about 300+ fps on High at 1080p in Counter-Strike 2, which means it runs comfortably. On Low the same card manages about 300+ fps, and on Ultra about 225.

The graphics card is the limit here, so lowering the resolution or the quality preset is what raises your frame rate.

For a steady 60 fps, our estimate says: 1080p: Ultra (about 225 fps); 1440p: Ultra (about 162 fps); 4K: Ultra (about 90 fps).

Settings advice

Counter-Strike 2 lists 8 GB of RAM and a processor of the 4 hardware CPU threads - Intel Core i5 750 class. Our estimate assumes a processor that does not limit the GeForce RTX 2060, so enter yours in the checker above if it is older than that.

For reference, the next card up in our list, the Radeon RX 6600, is estimated at 300+ fps on High at 1080p, so you have room to raise settings or resolution on the GeForce RTX 2060.
