I’m currently running a GTX 1060 6GB, intel i7-6700k 4.00GHz, 16 gb ram, 1tb ssd. 1080 60hz monitor.
I'm only getting about 50-55fps on Warzone.
I’m looking to upgrade to bump this number up. Can I upgrade one or two things to do that or an overhaul? This is my first pc and it’s used so I don’t know much.
 
I think you are mainly limited by the cpu but it is best to check. I would do 2 things, firstly monitor cpu cores/threads and see if any are hitting 98-100% when in game. If the answer is yes this is an indication the cpu might be the limiting. Secondly try dropping the resolution to 720p, if your fps stays about the same then again this is likely a cpu limitation.

If both are confirmed yes then you need a new cpu. This will require at least a new motherboard and possibly RAM. What speed is your RAM and is it 2x8gb?
