If you want to buy a new gaming PC and especially want to be able to play the current Call of Duty games, and perhaps the next one or two, smoothly, you'll have to dig deep into your pockets. To make sure that you get something good for your hard-saved money, we're going to present you with what we believe to be the top six best gaming PCs for Call of Duty on the market right now. These are sure to give youthe maximum performance and high FPSthat you want...
How Did We Choose The Best Gaming PCs For Call of Duty?
To find the best gaming PC builds for Call of Duty, we take a look at the official system requirements for Warzone and Vanguard, which you can see further down in this article.We'll roughly follow the recommended system requirements for this article, but will make sure that we exceed them by a good bit.After all, we don't only want to be able to play CoD smoothly with 60 FPS, but ideally also with over 100 FPS and on high settings. In addition, the PC should also be able to handle the upcomingModern Warfare IIandWarzone 2without any problems.
What Are The Best Gaming PCs For Call of Duty: Warzone & Vanguard?
With this machine, you get an excellent gaming PC that can handle Warzone and Vanguard with ease and is relatively cheap to boot. Oh, and it looks pretty good as well:
The Tricera III's Process, Graphics Card and RAM are easily able to play Call of Duty on high settings at well over 60FPS, even with a few other programs running alongside it. With 16GB of working memory, you are definitely well positioned for gaming.
| Operating System | Without Operating System |
| Processor (CPU) | AMD Ryzen 5 3600, 6x 3.6 GHz |
| RAM | 16 GB DDR4-3200 MHz (2x8GB), Dual-Channel |
| Graphics Card (GPU) | NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3050, 8GB GDDR6 |
| Motherboard | MSI B450M-A PRO MAX, AMD B450, AM4, mATX |
| Hard Disk Drive (HDD) | 500 GB M.2 SSD |
Power Supply Unit | EVGA 500W W1, 80+, 85% Power Efficiency |
The only two downsides to this gaming PC are the low Hard Drive Space and that it comes without an operating system. So you'll definitely have to buy an operating system and should also consider investing in a second HDD. Call of Duty games are unfortunately always very large and with only 500GB, your HDD will fill up quite quickly. With Vanguard and Warzone alone, you'll end up with 350GB if you install all modes.
The CAPTIVA I67-888 bursts onto the scene with an extremely potent RTX 3070 Ti and a thick 1000GB SSD. With this device, you shouldn't have any problems reaching those high frame rates that you want in any Call of Duty game...
All the components in this machine are designed to deliver decent performance while gaming. With 16GB of RAM, you're good to go, even if you have other applications open besides gaming. However, the heart of this PC is definitely the thick 3070 Ti, which will keep you well-equipped for upcoming blockbusters.
| Operating System | Microsoft Windows 11 Home (64 Bit) |
| Processor (CPU) | Intel Core i5-12400F, 2,90 GHz Alder Lake |
| RAM | 16 GB DDR4 RAM |
| Graphics Card (GPU) | Nvidia GeForce RTX 3070 Ti, 8GB GDDR6X |
| Motherboard | Gigabyte GA-B560 HD3 |
| Hard Disk Drive (HDD) | SSD 1 TB M.2 NVMe |
| Power Supply Unit | Captiva Power G650W |
Since the CAPTIVA also comes with Windows 11, you don't have to worry about an operating system. Despite the decent 1000GB SDD, we recommend buying a large HDD as well. After all, you want to use the SSD primarily for games and the operating system and not clutter it with photos, music, videos or other programs.
The one Premium is also sufficient to play Call of Duty smoothly with a higher frame rate. In addition to the RTX 3060, the HDD space is especially impressive.
With this processor, the RTX 3060 and the 16GB of RAM, you are more than well-prepared and equipped for all current and upcoming Call of Duty games. The 2TB HDD storage also benefits you, since Call of Duty always eats up a lot of memory. The 250GB SSD is unfortunately a bit too small for Warzone and Vanguard together, so we do not recommend installing any big games on it for now.
| Operating System | Without Operating System |
| Processor (CPU) | Intel Core i5-9600KF, 6 x 3.7 GHz - 4.6 GHz |
| RAM | 16 GB DDR4, 3200 MHz CORSAIR |
| Graphics Card (GPU) | NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060, 12 GB GDDR6 GIGABYTE |
| Motherboard | ASUS PRIME Z390-P |
| Hard Disk Drive (HDD) | 250 GB M.2 PCIe (NVMe) SSD Western Digital Blue SN570 / 2 TB HDD WD 2 TB SATA |
| Power Supply Unit | 750 Watt Gigabyte P750GM |
A small disadvantage of the one Premium is that it comes without an operating system, so you have to take care of that yourself. The HDD storage is fortunately more than sufficient, but if you want to run Warzone and Vanguard on an SSD to shorten loading times etc., we recommend investing in a larger or additional SSD.
The MPG Trident not only looks great, but also has enough power to run any Call of Duty smoothly at high FPS. It also takes up comparatively little space.
The MPG Trident A 11TC-1893DE comes with a potent processor, an RTX 3060 and 16GB of RAM, which is more than enough to be able to operate both Warzone and Vanguard perfectly. Another advantage is the darn generous storage space. A 1TB SSD is easily enough for both Vanguard and Warzone, so you don't need to upgrade here - 2TB HDD is also more than enough to store additional games, music, videos, etc.
| Operating System | Microsoft Windows 10 Home 64-Bit |
| Processor (CPU) | Intel® Core™ i7-11700F Processor, 2,5 GHz |
| RAM | 16 GB DDR4, 3200 MHz |
| Graphics Card (GPU) | NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060, 12 GB GDDR6 |
| Motherboard | Custom (Graffics: 1x DisplayPort-Out (DisplayPort Version: 1.4), 1x HDMI-Out (HDMI Version: 2.0) / Periphery: 5x USB-A 2.0, 1x USB-A 3.2 (5 Gbit/s), 1x USB-A 3.2 (10 Gbit/s), 1x USB-C 3.2 (5 Gbit/s), 1x USB-C 3.2 10 Gbit/s / Network: 1x RJ-45 |
| Hard Disk Drive (HDD) | 1 TB M.2 PCIe 3.0, SSD / 2 TB 2.5" SATA, HDD, 5400 U/min |
| Power Supply Unit | 450 Watt 80 PLUS Bronze |
Fortunately, the PC also comes with an operating system - Windows 10 Home - and can be upgraded to Windows 11 for free. Those who don't like laying meter-long cables through their home should also be happy about the WLAN adapter. The MPG Trident can also be connected to the Internet via WLAN without having to upgrade anything.
The Acer Predator Orion 3000 looks really mean and delivers decent power for its price. If you want to play Call of Duty in style, you'll get your money's worth here.
The special thing about this PC is definitely the extremely strong RTX 3070 graphics card. But the i7-11700F also delivers decent performance, and 16GB of RAM is more than enough. Again, we like the Hard Drive layout here. The 500GB SSD is just enough for the operating system and the latest Call of Duty games, and everything else fits on the 1TB HDD. However, the HDD can be upgraded as needed.
| Operating System | Without Operating System |
| Processor (CPU) | Intel Core i7-11700F, 8x 2,50GHz, - Turboboost up to 4,90GHz (8 Cores / 16 Threads) |
| RAM | 16GB DDR4-3200 RAM |
| Graphics Card (GPU) | NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070, 8GB GDDR6 |
| Motherboard | Intel H470 Express Chipset |
| Hard Disk Drive (HDD) | 512 GB PCIe NVMe M.2 SSD / 1TB 3,5" SATA3 HDD 7.200 U/min |
| Power Supply Unit | 500 Watt |
As with many gaming PCs, the operating system is unfortunately missing from the Acer Predator Orion 3000, so you'll have to take care of that yourself. Otherwise, you get a very powerful PC for relatively little money - after all, the RTX 3070 alone is currently just under €900, depending on the provider.
Finally, we have another PC for those of you who have a lot of money. You get a real gaming beast for just over €3000.
The CSL HydroX L9115 ASUS Extreme Gaming PC offers everything a gamer could possibly wish for. The i9-11900KF is a real beast and the RTX 3080 delivers fantastic performance. You also get 32GB of RAM, which is even enough for video or image editing. In addition, there is a WLAN adapter, water cooling and a whole 1000GB SSD as well as 2000GB HDD. With this amount of storage, you can put all of your Call of Duty games directly onto your SSD.
| Operating System | Microsoft Windows 11 Home (64 Bit) |
| Processor (CPU) | Intel Core i9-11900KF, 8x 3,5 GHz (from 5,3 GHz) |
| RAM | 32 GB DDR4-RAM Kingston, max. 3200 MHz |
Graphics Card (GPU) | ASUS GeForce RTX 3080, 10 GB GDDR6X |
| Motherboard | ASUS TUF GAMING Z590-PLUS WiFi |
| Hard Disk Drive (HDD) | 1000 GB M.2 SSD Kingston / 2 TB HDD |
| Power Supply Unit | 750 Watt |
Conveniently, the PC also comes with Windows 11, so you don't have to worry about the operating system anymore. Even though the CSL HydroX L9115 isn't cheap, at €3000, it definitely offers the most power and should get you through the next few years with ease.
