Yesterday, AMD rolled out Anti-Lag+ support in Counter Strike 2 through its latest Radeon drivers but you should probably avoid enabling it as it can lead to a potential ban.
Enabling AMD Anti-Lag+ In Counter Strike 2 Will Get You Banned, Devs Ask To Wait For Update
According to developers of Counter Strike 2, the latest AMD GPU driver (23.10.1) added support for Anti-Lag+ which is a feature that helps reduce latency within games. However, the feature modifies the DLL functions within the game files which can lead to the Anti-VAC detection to trigger, leading to a permanent ban.
AMD's latest driver has made their "Anti-Lag/+" feature available for CS2, which is implemented by detouring engine dll functions. If you are an AMD customer and play CS2, DO NOT ENABLE ANTI-LAG/+; any tampering with CS code will result in a VAC ban. Once AMD ships an update we can do the work of identifying affected users and reversing their ban.

That's why Valve is advising against enabling Anti-Lag+ within Counter Strike 2 & has asked gamers to wait for AMD to ship them an update so they can work on identifying the affected users, mostly owners of the Radeon RX 7000 series since Anti-Lag+ is only supported on the RDNA 3 architecture. All users who have been affected due to this issue will have the bans reversed though those who used other means to modify DLL files will remain banned.
