This quide will show you a list of commands which can boost Framerate and overall preformance.

1)Find your cfg folder in the cstrike folder (example "counter-strike sourcecstrike.cfg";)
2)Open up config.cfg and add the command exec userconfig.cfg , to the end of the list
3)Make a new text file called "userconfig.cfg" (without quotes) and add the commands (copy & paste the command below)
4)Place userconfig.cfg into the cfg folder
Tip 1: Any commands you dont want to use, you can delete them from the userconfig.cfg file. You can change commands to your liking.
eg. "mp_decals 50" change to "mp_decals 100" to have 100 decals instead of 50
eg. "cl_ejectbrass 0" can only be changed to either "cl_ejectbrass 0" or "cl_ejectbrass 1", please note 0 means off and 1 means on.
Tip 2:When using these commands, type "net_graph 1" while playing as this will show you your FPS and other useful info.
