The Call of DutyBlack Ops 7 beta is here, and like always, the game is incredibly well-optimized. The developers have used an older engine with this one, but the visuals have undergone a slight upgrade. This means that if you had a great experience playing Black Ops 6, the same is carried over here. This guide breaks down the best competitive settings for maximum e-sports gaming performance with popular GPU combinations.

Note: Ensure you have adequate CPU power to drive high FPS numbers. We recommend at least a Ryzen 5 5600X to enjoy the low input lag scene, delivered through high FPS numbers. Each of these settings can be customized as per your visual tolerance. If you’re not satisfied with the image quality, you are free to adjust the settings to your liking.

These settings are applicable for gamers who play on both 1440p and 1080p, and have modern mid-range hardware. Laptop gamers with identical GPU power can also use these settings, as they will work seamlessly. We have kept upscaling enabled. However, you can turn it off if you are experiencing CPU bottlenecks at such high frame rates.

With GPU power such as the RTX 4080 or RX 7900 XTX, we recommend pairing it with a heavily tuned Intel Core i9-14900K or Ryzen 9 9800X3D. Anything lower than that will cause CPU bottlenecks. If you don’t have a high-powered CPU, you can adjust the shader and shadow quality to see how things fare.

We recommend trying these settings through trial and error while monitoring CPU usage, GPU usage, FPS, 1% usage, and 0.1% usage simultaneously. This will help you get a better picture of how the game performs and whether you are CPU or GPU-bound while playing Black Ops 7.
