Hello Dear users.
Firstly, I want to say that we have one of the best hosting machines that are on the market right now with the best specs that we could afford as far as Cs: Go goes. We are having a problem 3 months now in accordance with our server's choke and fps drops. Users with 300 fps+ are not having any problem but the ones that have under 200 fps are seen having major issues. Basically a user that has less that 200 fps will forcibly drop to 120-100 and a user who has 150 fps will drop to 40-50 . We cannot understand why this particular problem is occurring . Furthermore, the server's choke randomly increases to 30-40-50 when we have 26-28 or more users actively playing in our server...Why is this happening? We live in Greece and the server is being hosted in France. I do not think that it is the hosts problem because if that was the case all of our servers would be having problems. Can someone enlighten us regarding the problem? we have been trying to get a fix for 3 months now and our hosting company claims that it is not their fault. What could be the problem?

Additionally, we are also coping with a problem in our casual server that had been occurring randomly 2 weeks now and at the moment, occurs in an everyday basis. The server crashes and auto restarts. Moreover, we find that bots are spawned randomly at the beginning of the map and as a result we have to kick them but they keep respawning. Also sometimes, after 1-2 rounds the bots disappear and after a while the server automatically restarts .We checked and we still check the logs on a daily basis but nothing seems wrong. Has that happened to anyone before and if it did, what did you do to fix it??

Any help would be highly appreciated.

Kind regards

You could try check your rates first. It depends server tickrate and player count...
But CSGO use a lot bandhwidht.
You can restrict rates with server cvars, example:
sv_minrate 256000
sv_mincmdrate 64
sv_minupdaterate 64
sv_maxrate 0

CHOKE usually comes when player rate is too low and updaterate high, can't take all data to himself.

*edit
secondly.
It would be desirable if server not run any power safe mode or Intel Speedsteps etc. etc.
CPU just keeping steady frequency no matter what.

That brick wall of text.

Choke is generally network related as above while max cpu core usage generates choke and var.

Please provide:

Max slots
Tickrate
Cpu details
Port speeds

Max slots:28
Tickrate:128
Cpu details:Intel core i7 7700k
Port speeds:Traffic: 250 Mbps bandwidth (burst 1 Gbps)

check cpu temperature(you can check with lm-sensors in centos), may your cpu overheat and limiting your cpu frequency.

What OS u use?

What kind of Server do you have? (Gamemode)

Is 128 Tick really needed at this point? For 28 Players, I would strongly recommend 64 Tick here.

@dangerlord63 I don't think that his CPU overheats. It seems like he is using a OVH Server.
