I’m running a 1660 super paired with a R5 2600X and I’m playing call of duty at 80 frames maybe less sometimes and would lobe to run 120+ frames ( I know if I lowered all my settings I could but I like the game to look decent) any ideas to upgrade?

Best results for you would come from a GPU upgrade. A RTX2070 Super would give you the 40+ increase in FPS for the most part (game dependent).

But ram can be a factor with Ryzen for FPS output too. What ram do you have and in what config? Ryzen loves fast ram, and going from say 2400mhz to 3200mhz, would yield a huge increase, as much as 15-30% game dependent.

CPU is pretty decent for running any high end GPU, so that would be the last thing I'd upgrade.

I have 3000mhz ram
Thx for the help
 
No problem. Is the ram a single DIMM or two DIMMS?

Ryzen also loves dual channel ram. So that means 2 DIMMS populated. As with faster ram, dual channel can also give a huge boost over a single DIMM. AS much as 15-25% application dependent.

You could also look at overclocking the ram to 3200, which could yield maybe about 5% performance increase over 3000mhz
