The Nvidia RTX 2060 and 2060 Super are powerful GPUs for playing Counter-Strike 2. Although these cards could easily handle Counter-Strike: Global Offensive, CS2 introduces better visual effects and support for the latest graphics technologies and overhauls other aspects of the shooter. While this improves the gameplay experience and brings it to par with the latest releases, it also tanks framerates.

Moreover, high FPS is crucial in a competitive multiplayer shooter like CS2. Hence, you need to tweak the graphics and video settings accordingly to gain an edge over other players. The game bundles a ton of customizable options, which can make fine-tuning cumbersome. To help you, we will list the best settings for the 2060 and its Super sibling in this article.

The RTX 2060 can handle Counter-Strike 2 at 1080p and 1440p resolutions but stick to the former for higher framerates. We recommend the high settings in the game for this GPU with multisampling anti-aliasing (MSAA) set to 4x for the best experience. You don't need to rely on temporal upscaling on the 2060.

The following settings work the best for the 2060 in Counter-Strike 2:
