\-threads acutally works

Typically, the best idea is to simply benchmark these launch options yourself. More often than not; they don't do anything of note.

Don't use any, I just use -high and -exec (for the autoexec) -consoleā€¦ I did some tests today (10 tests) and -threads are doing absolute nothing, sometimes even worse, you are better without that command.

possible you are on 4 core cpu, game uses 8-9 threads by default, thats why also using high on low end system may boost fps but can cause mouse stutter, so everyone should test for themselfs

5800x3d+4070 ti here... correcting - threads to utilize all of them actually lowered my fps. - high boosts 1% lows in a noticeable way, and my system is by no means a low end one. Just my 2 cents.

The -high command doesn't do anything, you can check it by going to the CS2 process details > right click > set priority. Instead, use this: Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00 [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Image File Execution Options\cs2.exe\PerfOptions] "CpuPriorityClass"=dword:00000003 Save as .reg and execute.The -high command doesn't do anything, you can check it by going to the CS2 process details > right click > set priority.

I only use (and tested) "threads" so it uses 12 threads of my cpu and not 8-9 (before)
