COD WarZone: Lag and Stutter Fix. FPS Boost Guide for Low-End PCs

COD WarZone is a very popular game but at the same time, it is very heavy. The game is 185 GB big and weekly updates are 2 GB so this game does take a lot of space on your PC. It is also a highly intense game and unlike most other battle royale games, this looks good even with every graphic setting set to low. Most low-end PCs might not be able to run it but if you have the recommended configuration and are still facing lag and stutter issues, this guide will help you get slightly better frame rates and have a smoother experience. However, if the game is giving you very less frame rates then this might not work, and you clearly need to upgrade your system or choose a different game.
