Performance Impact: High (CPU/GPU)

com_maxfpsunfocused

Sets a separate FPS cap when the game is minimized. Setting this to 10 or 30 saves massive amounts of GPU power and heat while waiting in lobbies or Alt-Tabbed.

💡

Pro Tip

Set to 30 — your GPU and CPU stay cool while waiting in lobbies or alt-tabbed, but the game wakes up instantly when you click back without any stutter.
