How to install Digital Vibrance in CS:GO

Have you ever watched professional CS:GO players stream and wondered why their game looks so colorful compared to yours? There’s a reason for why their game looks like this while yours don’t. They use digital vibrance.

What is Digital Vibrance in CS:GO?

Digital Vibrance is one of those things you’ll hear a lot about in CS:GO but maybe you don’t quite know what it is. Well, to put it simply, it is the colors of your monitor. Specifically, the color temperature where you can adjust it to be cool or warm colors. Most experienced Counter-Strike players have adjusted their Digital Vibrance to the max and there probably doesn’t exist a professional CS:GO player without Digital Vibrance on. The preferred setting is to turn it up to 100% so that all the colors get warmer and just overall more visually appealing than the default grey scaled look CS:GO has.

The benefits behind using Digital Vibrance is not just a visual overhaul it got a few benefits to the gameplay as well. The biggest advantage of using Digital Vibrance in CS:GO is how much easier it gets to spot enemies. Since all the colors are more explosive and filled with contrast it is easier for your eyes to differentiate between player models and background.

If you do not have Digital Vibrance in CS:GO then it’s time to install it. There’s a great example of the difference between vibrance off/on below:
