Problem description:

Counter Strike averages 23fps on official Valve servers. On most private servers it works fine. On some private servers it stutters a lot but pushes a high framerate. Arma 3 and Apex Legends run fine.

Attempted fixes:

Replaced graphics card. Reinstalled windows. Reinstalled drivers.

Recent changes:

I was using a Radeon WX7100 Pro and found that it was overheating and throttling itself during gaming. I replaced it with an open-box 5500 XT and started experiencing the low-fps issue in CS:GO on official valve servers. I reset Windows, used the AMD cleanup utility to clear drivers, reinstalled drivers, and the issue persisted. Arma 3 and Apex legends ran fine, never had problems, but CS:GO refused to run smoothly. I gave up and replaced the open-box 5500 card with a new 5600 XT card, and nothing changed.

This seems to be a known issue. I've seen posts about this since 2015. People claim to have resolved the issue by running the game as admin.

Right, forgot that one, my bad. Should’ve mentioned.

That didn’t have any effect.

Could be network stuttering, related to packet formation. You said you reinstalled drivers, but just to make sure; maybe try the latest LAN driver? https://www.msi.com/Motherboard/support/B450-TOMAHAWK-MAX#down-driver&Win10%2064

This is still happening, and I am no closer to figuring out a solution.

I've just been unable to play CS for all of quarantine, no idea what the hell. Expensive gaming rig runs Arma 3 and Ark and a pile of other games on max settings. CS:GO doesn't get above ~28fps somehow.
