My Specs:
i7 7700
GTX 1060 3gb
16gb ram at 2400 (1 stick)
550W powersupply
around 55-65 Celsius underload
My problem:
I play fortnite competitively at 1080P 144Hz. locked frames at 160. However i keep getting frame drops, its never consistently 160. also sometimes huge frame drops down to like 40-60 late game. At first i thought it was the cooling of my pc so i upgraded from stock cooler to heat sink and now get 55-65 max temp under load. So thats def not the problem. So my question is, are these frame drops because of my i7 7700 (non K) or gtx 1060 3gb. I play on all low and near settings. I noticed the cpu works around 80+ % underload meanwhile when i minimize the game and check gpu load its usually around 50%. What should i upgrade, gpu or cpu first.
