CS:GO with NO GPU || Intel HD Graphics 630, 8 GB RAM, No SSD

Merry late christmas! As an alternative way to celebrate the holidays on my benchmarking channel, let's test CS:GO on Intel HD Graphics, as it's popular, E-Sports and stuff like that, and is quite broken optimization-wise compared to how it was a few years ago, according to what I've heard. And I gotta say, it actually runs quite well here. Quite well for a casual player like me, but for a competitive player, well... Given that you have to lower the resolution quite a bit to get a 60+ FPS experience almost all of the time, I'm not so sure... CS:GO is a game where you DO want as much FPS as possible if you want to be "competitive", and I don't think zWORMz Gaming, or any of the aim-botters from the countries of Russia and Ukraine, would be happy playing at 640x480. But hey, at least this is better than the 5 FPS I got with the crappy Lenovo IdeaPad 100-15IBY whose processor is worse than a Mobile Core 2 Duo from 2006! :D

BTW, I suck in this game!
