[SOLVED] Which parts to upgrade to reduce lag and get higher fps in Warzone?

[Martin9744]

Hello,

I'm home from my uni now cuz of the pandemic, and I thought I'd try to game again. I downloaded the Battle royale game COD Warzone, but I'm not happy with the FPS. I get around 80-90FPS and the game also doesn't feel smooth at all. All the graphics are on low and normal.

I also have a 60Hz monitor, but I found a 240Hz monitor on sale and ordered it. I think the 60Hz played a part in the game feeling bad, since Im used to 144Hz.

Would you guys say my pc parts are outdated? Maybe I just need a new gpu? I listed my parts below with hyperlinks. Thank you!

My current parts are:
Motherboard: Asus ROG Maximus VII Formula
CPU: Intel Core i7-4790K
GPU: Gigabyte G1 GTX 980
RAM: Corsair Vengeance Pro DDR3 1866MHz 16GB

That’s not a bad setup. I’d suspect it’s more of a core limit CPU issue. Run MSI afterburner and set on screen display for GPU and cpu usage. Game and see what your usage is.

Will try that the next time I'm on. Thanks.
