Hello everyone, looking for some guidance on my recent setup. I have a Ryzen 7 AMD 5700g, ZOTAC RTX 3070, and an ASUS Tuf Gaming A520M-PLUS with Wi-Fi. I noticed my Valorant performance is around 150-200 FPS on low settings, which is below the 300 FPS I expect with this hardware. From online benchmarks, I think my CPU might be the limiting factor, possibly due to the motherboard bottlenecking it. My AMD Ryzen Master settings seem odd—my CPU utilization is only 51% in Chrome but 90% during Valorant. Should I upgrade to a more advanced motherboard?

Your per-core CPU usage in games typically reflects how efficiently each core is handling tasks. High utilization often means the game is running smoothly, while low usage might indicate background processes or performance bottlenecks.
