Counter-Strike:Global Offensive (cs:go) low fps

So I already searched the forum but I couldn't really get any improvement and some things seem outdated.
Alone on a map I got something like 70-100fps. If I actually go online on a casual server f.e it dips even down to 20-30fps.

Thanks in advance for any help!

Use code tags to paste command output. You are using quote.

Is it reproducible offline with bots? Try several maps.

Re: Counter-Strike:Global Offensive (cs:go) low fps

Maybe try the open source drivers instead of proprietary. See if that makes any massive change.

Plus check your settings in the nvidia control panel to make sure you don't have power saving on or something else that will muck up the performance.
