Performance Impact: Low (CPU)

cg_impactSparks

Emits physical sparks from enemies and walls when hit by hitscan weapons. Pros often turn this Off to reduce screen clutter, relying instead on audio cues and blood for hit confirmation.

💡

Pro Tip

Turn it OFF — removing spark particles clears your view so you can track the enemy through your own shots instead of staring at flying debris.
