Why? Top-end parts have plenty of life left. If video performance is sub-par, do your homework very carefully on the current selections and choose wisely for your monitor. You might want a Samsung 980 NVMe M.2 as primary drive for snappier performance from windows.

Upgrading anything else doesn't make much sense. They are still very solid parts.

What kind of frame rate are you seeing in Warzone?

Also, what monitor do you have? If you're looking to upgrade something, that 's frequently a great way to start.

Monitor ZOWIE XL2546K TN 240Hz DyAc⁺™ 24.5 inch 1080P
FPS consistant at around 160. I used to get 200 to 240 on Warzone.

I'm not sure why you would want to upgrade. You're frame rates are already pretty amazing. I personally can't feel any difference between 100 and 250 FPS. Can you feel any difference between 160 anf 240 FPS?

Since you're monitor is only 1080p, then I would consider upgrading to something bigger. I really love 34" and 38" ultrawide GSYNC monitors that support HDR. The immersion is just amazing. And if you do that, then you might need to upgrade your GPU to maintain some crazy high FPS.

I would agree with JamesAstro here sir....Your hardware is still very top line gear. A monitor upgrade to a bigger wider 34" or 38" NVidia GSynch 1440p IPS gaming monitor would be your best upgrade path for a noticeable gaming improvement. Allows you to better see what eye candy that fine RTX 3090 GPU can produce.   You will trade some frame rate reduction in exchange for improved resolution on a bigger panel, but your eyes will thank you for the larger higher quality playspace!

If you want to upgrade, get a 1440 monitor and use the 1080 as a second one. Your hardware will move them just nicely.

Thanks for the help. I just got the LG 27gr95qe-b monitor and the Samsung 980 PRO NVMe M.2. How would I make it as my primary drive. Also would transferring warzone to the new NVMe do anything for performance?
