Counter-Strike 2 benchmark on GTX 1060 3GB: FPS by resolution and quality
Pick yours and we recalculate the whole table above with it.
Counter-Strike 2 FPS with a GTX 1060 3GB and a Intel Core i5-13400
| Quality | 1080p (Full HD) | 1440p (2K) | 4K (Ultra HD) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Ultra | 23FPS min 20Poor | 14FPS min 13Unplayable | 6FPS min 5Unplayable |
| High | 30FPS min 27Acceptable | 19FPS min 17Poor | 7FPS min 6Unplayable |

| Low | 51FPS min 45Acceptable | 32FPS min 29Acceptable | 12FPS min 11Unplayable |
| Bottleneck (estimated) | GPU 63% | GPU 77% | GPU 91% |
The percentage estimates how much of the stronger component's capability goes unused because of the other one.
It makes no difference which processor you have: with the GTX 1060 3GB in Counter-Strike 2 the graphics card is always the brake. Swapping CPU would not gain you a single frame — put the money into the card.
FSR performance: FPS with AI upscaling
Upscaling renders Counter-Strike 2 at a lower internal resolution and reconstructs the image, so you trade a little sharpness for extra frames. These are the estimated figures for the GTX 1060 3GB with FSR enabled, starting from its native Ultra FPS.
| Resolution | Native | FSR Quality | FSR Performance |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1080p | 23 | 29 | 33 |
| 1440p | 14 | 19 | 23 |
| 4K | 6 | 9 | 11 |
About ray tracing: every figure on this page is with ray tracing off. The GTX 1060 3GB has no dedicated hardware for it, so it is an option best left disabled.
Estimated figures. The real gain varies by game and by the version of the technology.
Is the CPU or the graphics card holding you back?
These FPS assume a mid-range CPU that isn't a bottleneck — roughly a Intel Core i5-13400 — and 16 GB of RAM.
Here the graphics card is the brake: the GTX 1060 3GB is what caps the frame rate in Counter-Strike 2. A faster processor would hardly change the result.
Is the GTX 1060 3GB Enough for Counter-Strike 2?
The GTX 1060 3GB delivers 23 FPS at 1080p Ultra in Counter-Strike 2. This GPU is not enough for Counter-Strike 2 at this resolution. We recommend a more powerful GPU.
At 1440p it gets 14 FPS and at 4K 6 FPS at Ultra quality.
This GPU does not reach 60 FPS at 1080p Ultra
