I'm on the hunt for the best CPU and GPU combination that can run CS2 at 400-500 fps with low settings, high shadows, and 4x MSAA at a resolution of 1280x960 stretched. Can you tech-savvy folks offer some advice?

I'd suggest going for the Intel 12400F paired with a 4060 GPU. This combo should get you around 370 FPS at 1080p, which is pretty decent for gaming. You might also look at the 12400F with the 5600X and a 9060XT 8GB graphics card. It should fit your budget, though pricing can vary by location. Also, consider upgrading to a 1080p monitor for a better overall experience!
I appreciate the suggestion! Just to clarify, I'm focusing on in-game resolution rather than the monitor's. Also, since that video is a bit old, I'm wondering if the performance has changed with the latest CS2 updates. Thanks again!
