My computer can run team fortress 2, but setting everything on low on counter-strike 2 doesn’t make it playable.

Can I change something in the terminal to make the game even uglier to run on my pc? Here’s my neofetch result:

    Counter-Strike 2 runs noticeably worse than Source games like CS:GO and Team Fortress 2. Sadly CS2s Source 2 Vulkan renderer isn’t so great compared to its DX11 renderer, which is only available on Windows. It might mean you’re stuck with worse performance, even I want to upgrade from my RX580 because fps drops feel really bad. When I tried to run CS2 on the Steam Deck fps where ok, but also not great, so sadly it’s not unexpected that it’s not playable on that laptop. Hopefully Valve improves their Vulkan renderer.

    The 7520u’s performance is roughly a quarter of the Steam Deck’s, making it suboptimal for gaming. However, I came across this video demonstrating the CPU running Cyberpunk 2077 at 13 fps, albeit not playable. Considering this, it suggests that CS2 should be playable; there might be issues with drivers or the CS2 installation.

      and you are right! I gave it another shot and I can run at 30 fps at 768p. I’m still curious if I can disable something using the terminal, I see that people replied with links to help me with that, I’ll watch them later.

    I tried changing the graphics settings on my mid-range PC and they barely make any difference. You can tune FSR to the max but I don’t think there will be much notable difference in performance.
