Why is my PC underperforming in Call of Duty Warzone?
Asked by

I've been having some performance issues with my PC while playing Call of Duty Warzone. My specs are a Ryzen 8700F, an Nvidia 5070, and 32 GB of DDR5 RAM on an x870e motherboard. Despite optimizing all the settings I could, I'm only getting around 100-130 fps on average. I've even tried overclocking with MSI Afterburner, but it doesn't seem to help. When I play, my CPU and GPU are both only running at 50-60% usage, with temperatures staying around 50-60 degrees Celsius. Any ideas on how to improve performance?

Have you checked if you have an FPS limit set in the game or in your Nvidia settings? Also, what resolution and refresh rate is your monitor? If it's 2K at 180Hz, make sure G-Sync is disabled if you’re not using it. You should monitor the CPU and GPU frequencies while gaming with a tool like HWinfo to see if they're hitting any limits. Also, make sure your Windows power plan is set to high performance!

PCBuilder99: The FPS limit is set to 200 in the game. My monitor is 2K 180Hz, and G-Sync is off on both ends. Plus, my power plan is already set to high performance. I’ll definitely check HWinfo, thanks!
