Just like CS: Source and CS 1.6, CS:GO is a super-popular game mainly because of its successful gameplay formula that still attracts new players every day. Unlike its predecessors, CS:GO was transitioned to the free-to-play model and now everyone can download the game and play it right away.

Another thing that makes the game so well-known is the fact it doesn’t require a powerful PC for playing it. In most cases, even not-so-powerful devices are okay for 60 FPS on Low settings. That’s why for today’s article we have picked two inexpensive dGPUs that can be found even in modest laptops – the NVIDIA GeForce MX450 (GDDR6/25W) and MX350 (25W).
