E.g. In Fortnite, my graphics card is 70-80% busy, but mostly has 110-150 FPS, and I have a 144 Hz monitor.

Do I need a new graphics card or a better CPU?

Graphics card is more busy, but sometimes the CPU is more busy

The bottleneck is clearly the cpu so you need a newer one

The graphics card can already go to 99% with my current CPU

Which cpu and gpu do you have?

The graphics card must always be used to capacity by 100% if not then the problem is usually the cpu

Ryzen 5 2400g + GTX 960 Ti

Will soon buy the Ryzen 7 5800x + RTX 3060 Ti

In many games it runs at 99%, but not in Fortnite / Gta 5
