Is multicore rendering enabled?
Maybe this comment will help: https://github.com/ValveSoftware/Counter-Strike-Global-Offensive/issues/104#issuecomment-57914917
Same problem here: very high framerate (180 to 260fps) but get fraction-of-a-second pauses regularly. Ubuntu 14.04 and 14.10, Core i5 2500 oh H67 chipset. NVidia Geforce 760 GTX.
I turned multicore rendering on and off. No difference. Changing resolutions back and forth. No change.
I've tried nvidia versions 331, 340, and 343 (from xorg-edgers). Same resutls. I even installed a fresh version of lubuntu with no extra packages. Played it with ALSA only and then with pulseaudio. Same thing.
I tried 3 different sound cards: integrated, HDMI on graphics card, and USB audio. No difference.
I'm really excited about playing this game in linux, so if any of the devs need help running profilers or diagnostics, I'm happy to give feedback if I can.
EDIT: After a bit of experimentation, I discovered that the setting Options->Video->Model/Texture Detail to Low greatly decreases the amount of 'chop', even if all the other settings are on High or Very High.
Maybe this goes without saying, but the game in Windows is completely smooth after a couple of minutes after loading.
Another observation is that Borderland Pre-Sequel gets choppy after loading a new area. The behavior is almost the same. Is this Nvidia driver + Geforce 760 specific behavior?
Can't remember which setting it was (think it was either texture quality or shader quality), but after setting them to Low, all stuttering were completely fixed with the opensource radeon stack (Mesa 10.3.0) for me (and I would expect similar behaviour with AMD Catalyst, because I had the exact same stutters there despite okay-ish FPS).
I'm now noticing that this doesn't happen when there are few or no real players in a deathmatch server. The more human players that join, the more frequent and long the "chunks" become.
I had the same issues on my old hardware, not tested on the new hardware yet, however, I am playing cs go on my windows partition now because of this, because when you play competitve mode and that happens, you are screwed.
Just to update. The weird stutters are gone now. There are still stutters if you are playing for the first time, at least with AMD Catalyst, but that is expected behaviour because the shaders are compiled once and written into the shader cache. After that, it's smooth now.
Another update:
With the new AMD Catalyst 15.3 Beta (fglrx 15.200, special driver avaible for Ubuntu) even the initial stutters are completely gone for me. I noticed that the AMD OpenGL binary shader cache is also a bit smaller which was related to this, so it seems they improved the behaviour. But the behaviour of the game itself is also improved. There used to be a "downloads" directory with some kind of shadercache, which doesn't exist anymore in the current CSGO releases. Anyways, my point is, that with the newest CSGO and the newest drivers/AMD Catalyst, this issue is fixed and the performance is totally acceptable.
As far as I know, the full/public release of the AMD Catalyst 15.3 driver is happening in four days, on 19.03.2015
Update - So far I have not had any issues where the game fps dropped and or the game crashed. Thx for the fixes.
d2kx i still dont understand what you mean ? To delete whole game and userdata for specific game and then reinstall game ?!
I am on Gentoo with catalyst 15.3 updated to 15.5 still same issue, insane framedrop and input lag
AMD FX8320 PowerColor HD 7870 GHZ Edition 2GB GDDR5 256Bit 16GB RAM SSD/HDD
Fglrx has a long standing issue with stuttering when used with the Source engine. It is now obsolete in favor of AMD's new AMDGPU-PRO hybrid driver and their open source driver in Mesa.
For overall performance issues, starting with #1111, we are switching to a common issue report to keep this issue tracker manageable.
guys it seems i found the solution. just type -gl command in boot settings of cs go in steam. it will enable opengl mode. i tried it on 3 pc with Ubuntu and Linux Mint installed. it helped me. before i had 30fps even in menu of the game. now 140 on dust2 when playing.
Hello @asaoppenheimer, that launch option should make no difference with the native CS:GO client. Are you using the windows client in wine?
So i tried it on linux it gives some boost, and graphics improvement, but i still in struggle with input devices..
No, without wine.
but still with hard framedrops... and input lag
This fixed my fps drops (works for intel cpus apparently) Disable thermald service:
sudo systemctl stop thermald.service
sudo systemctl disable thermald.service
I should be noted that disabling thermald on modern Intel CPU can lead to some hardware (laptop hardware in particular) running hotter than is acceptable and on many systems, if the socket temperature reaches 100°C, then it will trigger a failsafe and immediately halt the system.
You should look into tuning thermald so that it throttles the CPU sooner under heavy load so that it gives more consistent results overall and doesn't need to use the lower max CPU speeds to keep the system at the target temperature. For example, I had a Sandybridge laptop which thermald would try to use RAPL before other mechanisms, but it barely had any effect so the system would overshoot the target temperature under load, then have to overcompensate until it briefly saw safe temperatures, and then throttle up and repeat the throttling cycle over again.
The game is unplayable for me. Menu is stuttering, hovering between 20-40 FPS. When in game, FPS seems stable around 120-160 but gameplay is very sluggish. It seems every couple of seconds the framerate drops completely, resulting in a very choppy gameplay experience. Since today, after a few minutes of playing the framerate drops to around 20 FPS and the only way to fix it, is to restart the game.
I'm running Ubuntu 14.04 with an Intel 2500K CPU and a Nvidia 560Ti GPU with the 343.22 drivers.
