Fortnite is buggy AF atm.

 

I get anywhere between a 1-10 sec lag spike at the start of almost every game. I have also noticed end game frametime issues, not every game but often enough to notice.

?? But the PSU listed in your parts list is a Cooler Master MWE Gold 650W? It's A) 650W, B) a pretty decent PSU, and C) having a PSU with not enough wattage isn't going to cause such an issue.
That person doesn't know what they're talking about.

 

What does the FPS start out as and what does it drop to?

What happens if you run a synthetic benchmark like 3dMark timespy extreme?
Does the FPS drop in other games?

You have 120mm aio cooler which is made for stock cpu speeds(i7 9700k runs pretty hot). Check your cpu temps. Play fortnite and measure your temps with hwinfo64

Spoiler

 

Gpu tier list. Rtx 3000 and RX 6000 not included since not so many reviews. Tier S for Water cooling. Tier A and B for overcloking. Tier C stock and Tier D avoid.

( You can overclock Tier C just fine, but it can get very loud, that is why it is not recommended for overclocking, same with tier D)

Spoiler

 

Psu tier List. Tier A for Rtx 3000, Vega and RX 6000. Tier B For anything else. Tier C cheap/IGPU. Tier D and E avoid.

(RTX 3000/ RX 6000 Might run just fine with higher wattage tier B unit, Rtx 3070 runs fine with tier B units)

Spoiler

 

Storage tier List. Tier A for Moving files/  OS. Tier B for OS/Games. Tier C for games. Tier D budget Pcs. Tier E if on sale not the worst but not good.

(With a grain of salt, I use tier C for OS myself)

I don’t know dude, he’s an online IT. He claimed its indirectly affecting. 

im supposed to run the game at 240 fps

my average fps runs between 120-240. Its really weird to have this huge gap with such pc parts!!

You mean the kraken m22 is not good for my cpu? Actually im considering to upgrade it to the new kraken z63 https://www.newegg.com/global/il-en/nzxt-liquid-cooling-system-kraken-z/p/N82E16835146069

 

do u think it’d solve the problem?

its okay cooler, but you should still check the temperatures of your gpu and your cpu. And yes that 280mm one will be much better

Look at pro players' streams, I've seen even 9900k/2080ti that drop significantly lategame. 

 

On youtube ItsJerian has a few videos on all kinds of different settings you can tweak to help your fps.
