Advice for cpu upgrade

[Born2War20]

Can a 3900x do 240hz in modern warefare or should i get a 9900k. Graphics setting don't matter im doing 720 low right now. i currently have a 4790k and a 2070, so ill have to do cpu motherboard and ram for either one

Hertz?

That's a function of your monitor, not the CPU

It's 240fps. Even the best cpu's with the best gpu's struggle to get there. A 3900x and 9900k will pretty much achieve the same framerate. Overclocking your 4790k will most likely get you to 240fps too.

i get 180hz with my 4790k even at 4.8ghz

Wile that older i7 of yours is bottlenecking your GPU a bit, your framerate is much more dependent on GPU than CPU. The 3900x will be within 1 or 2 frames of the 9900k with a 2070. The new 10900k launching at the end of May supposedly clocks up to 5.3ghz, so that may be slightly faster. 

 

Just getting a 2080 Super with a 3600 or 3700x will be more of an upgrade as far as framerates are concerned.

 

But if you are currently getting 180fps, the difference between that and 240fps will likely not be noticeable at all during gaming. 

 

I'm assuming you are asking because you have a 240Hz monitor?
