I've been playing games like Arc Raiders, Call of Duty Warzone, and Battlefield, and I'm currently getting around 160-200 FPS. My CPU usage is about 40% while my GPU is at 80%. I'm considering an upgrade, particularly for the GPU. Are there any good recommendations for boosting performance without breaking the bank? Here are the specs of my current setup:
- Processor: Intel® Core™ i7-13700KF CPU
- Video Card: GeForce RTX 4070 - 12GB
- Memory: 32GB DDR4-3200MHz RGB RAM
- Power Supply: 700 Watt - 80 PLUS Gold PSU
- Storage: 1TB NVMe SSD
- Cooling: 240mm ARGB Liquid Cooling
- Motherboard: Z790 WiFi
- Case: iBUYPOWER HYTE Y40 Pro RGB Gaming Case
What can I do to get even more frames per second?

It looks like you're hitting a CPU limit since your GPU isn't maxed out. If you really want to boost your performance, consider overclocking your CPU and RAM. However, genuine upgrades like a Ryzen X3D CPU would require a new motherboard and RAM, which can get pricey. Honestly, you might be better off sticking with your setup as is. If you’re looking for tweaks, just enable XMP for your RAM to run at full speed.
Yeah, I don't think you're CPU-limited at just 40% usage! But checking XMP is definitely a good start.
