It seems that with the big update that the game received at the end of last year, renamed CS2, Valve decided to change the usual nomenclature of the different phases. Instead of being Challengers, Legends and Champions are now the Opening Stage, the Elimination Stage, and finally the Playoff Stage.
The PGS CS2 PC will have an AMD processor
On this occasion and, as in previous editions, it seems that AMD has been chosen by Valve for the equipment that players use during the 15 days that the championship lasts. These devices will be managed by the processor Ryzen 7 7800X3D
The choice of an AMD processor only confirms that the AMD processors They constitute the best option for the world of video games, although the majority of users opt for Intel processors, as reflected every month in Steam statistics, where Intel monopolizes the market with a share of 67% against AMD’s 32%.
It is striking that Valve did not opt for the Intel Core i9-14900KS, the fastest processor in the world today. The main reason is that the Ryzen 7 7800X3D processor is designed from the ground up for gaming, so despite lower specs, thanks to the Zen architecture 4 It offers excellent performance, much higher than what can be found in any other Intel processor.
As for the graphics, Valve decided that with the NVIDIA RTX 4080 It’s more than enough. CS2 is almost entirely based on CS, a game that does not require very powerful graphics depends more on CPU usage than graphics. In addition, the usual resolution being 1920×1080, the RTX 4080 is sufficient.
Regarding the manufacturer chosen for the monitors used by gamers, we are talking about BenQespecially with the model XL2566K, a 24.5 inch monitor with a resolution of 360 Hz and 1920 x 1080. Remember that in electronic sports th is is the resolution used where graphic quality always comes second and where speed is sought highest response.
The equipment that the Valve team designed in combination with the BenQ monitor is more than enough to move CS2 to its maximum FPS, so there should be no problems.
PGS CS2 Peripherals
If we talk about peripherals, we cannot talk about a particular manufacturer since all eSports players travel with their favorite peripherals and that also includes the mat they use. Logitech with the G Pro will probably be one of the most popular mice, along with keyboards Corsair.
As for the sound section, things change here, since in this type of championships two headphones are included, one in the ear listen to players and others supraural to isolate environmental noise. It’s not comfortable having to manage two headphones at once, but it’s the best option for gamers to isolate themselves from the environment.
