What country are you from and what's your budget?

I play ATS avidly as well and ran it just fine on a 1700 with a 1650 Super displaying on a 43" Toshiba FireTV, now using a 55" Sceptre, both at 60hz. Of course I was also running ATS from an M.2 and with 32GB of DDR4-3200 RAM, which helps. But I don't think your display is the issue, it's more likely your RAM speed.

 

You don't mention the motherboard model or RAM speed, but that is likely a lot of your issue. Most 2000-series Ryzen processors I've seen folks asking about on here were on A320 boards with DDR3-1333 Mhz RAM, and the boards generally did not support any faster RAM. You might try lowering your display resolution, scaling and graphic detail to see if it helps. There's also a refresh rate setting you can tinker with, I would make sure it's not trying to refresh too fast.

 

For the price of more performance 1333, you could get 32MB of DDR4-3200 and a motherboard that will support DDR4, an M.2, accept your 2600, AND allow a faster processor upgrade later. If you go that route, I recommend the Asus TUF Gaming B550-PLUS or B550-PRO. Also, I recommend Crucial Ballistix RAM for Ryzen, it's what I have both in my previous 1700 and my recent 5900X build.

Bigger GPU before Bigger CPU. RTX 2060 bare minimum for 4K 60fps.

I would start with cpu, motherboard, gpu, and psu upgrade.

 

You'll want Ryzen 5 5600X, b550 motherboard, at least a RTX 3060 or RTX 3060Ti, and a 750W 80+ Gold PSU.

My 3070Ti struggles a bit at 4K with some titles, maybe look at a 3080 or so. Of course I am trying to play at max settings, maybe the 3070Ti would be ok if you turned some settings down.

At 4k60 huh?  A 5600x AND a new motherboard is a necessary upgrade at 4k60……….   And a PSU upgrade with even knowing what he has………….
