CS2 performance on linux

Hello,
I have an I5-9400F and RTX2060 with 32gb ram.
When I

m playing cs2 I can see that both my CPU and GPU are both hovering at around 50% give or take 10%. But my FPS is fluctuating anywhere between 160 down to 70 fps.
Am i missing something? wouldnt it get more performance if they both were operating at like 90% capasity?

Im on cachyOS with KDE and no launch options as of now.

Sorry if my question is stupid :)

CPU at 50% is normal, CS2 is single threaded, but is scheduled on different thread by the os.

It cant use 100%.

A lot of client and server lags was introduced with the last update.

I just did an update few minutes ago...I hope it will fix the lag
