Hey Guys,

I am running at lowest 40fps and at most 80fps on the new black ops (Call of Duty®: Black Ops Cold War) - keeping in note that only 5gbs out of the 8gbs of vram is being used on good settings -  and I have the following specs;

CPU: i5-9600k

GPU: RTX 2070

Ram: 32gb 3200MHz

My friend averages around 80-90 fps on the same settings with the following specs;

CPU: i7-7700

GPU: GTX 1660

Ram: 16gb ??MHz

I suspect a cpu bottleneck, would I correct by thinking that? If so, what can you recommend on replacing the cpu with. 

Thanks for the help, Dr.

To the subject question. However if there is an app that can't feed the GPU then it's more of the apps problem since about the i5-2500 we saw that CPU feeding a trio of then generation graphic cards at full tilt.

Again, no.
