Hello! I am wondering, if my CPU is bottlenecking my GPU someway. What leads me to this thought is that when im playing CoD: Warzone, my game keeps crashing regularly. It comes randomly, fps are not indicating that a crash might be coming, so thats why i thought its probably not the gpu causing it. Additionally, when i "monitored" the pc with msi afterburner, the cpu was constantly on 4150 Mhz, while the gpu rested on around 30-40% usage. Plus these specs (according to sites like gpucheck, etc.) should be more than capable of running basically any game, as far as i know, right?

Also, I checked my system information, and it states that i have 16 GB of ram, but only 12,9 are available. I ran the game with MSI Afterburner showing CPU, GPU and Ram usage. And the RAM sometimes approaches 12 GB. So could it be that my memory is reaching its limits while playing warzone?

I dont really know much about these things, im a casual gamer, so i dont even really know how to approach this problem. How/what/where should i monitor/try to find out what exactly the cause is?

Thanks in advance for any advice!
 
Your platform should be fine for pretty much any gaming title. Might want to include the make and model of your PSU and it's age, the BIOS version for your motherboard and the OS as well as it's version(not edition). How are you cooling that processor and what sort of an airflow do you have in your case? Speaking of case, make and model of your case?
 
Hi! Thanks for the quick reply!

The PSU is be quiet! System Power 600 Watt
Cooler: be quiet! Pure Rock
Case: Cooler Master MasterBox Lite 5 RGB

All the parts of the PC are about 2 years old, i never used them for anything else than casual gaming, and only on 1080p, so the pc was never under serious amount of stress.
The bios version is B.00, 23.07.2019, and im running Win 10 Version 10.0.19043 Build 19043.
I cant really speak intelligently about the airflow of the case, since i bought this PC prebuilt, but i would assume that whoever put it together was not an amateur.
