The hardware floor for Counter-Strike 2
This floor comes out of the frame rate model: it looks for the weakest buyable part in our catalogue that the model still credits with the target rate for Counter-Strike 2. It is a lower bound, not a buying recommendation, and none of it is measured.
For 60 frames at 1080p the model settles on NVIDIA RTX 3050 6GB together with Intel Core i3-12100. For that pair it works out 99 frames.
For 144 frames at 1440p the model settles on NVIDIA RTX 4060 Ti together with Intel Core i3-12100. For that pair it works out 152 frames.
