The CPU sets your frame-rate ceiling. For high-refresh (144Hz+) or 1080p competitive play, lean toward the sweet-spot or high-end pick; at 4K the GPU does most of the work and a budget-tier CPU is usually enough.

Frequently Asked Questions
What CPU do I need for VOID/BREAKER?
A Intel Core i5-14500-class processor meets the recommended bar. For high frame rates a AMD Ryzen 9 7900X gives more headroom. Verify any chip with our free Can I Run It checker.
Does the CPU matter for VOID/BREAKER, or just the GPU?
Gaming is GPU-bound, so the graphics card matters most for raw settings and resolution. But the CPU sets your frame-rate ceiling — it matters most at high refresh rates, at 1080p, and in CPU-heavy games (strategy, simulation, open-world). A weak CPU paired with a strong GPU causes a bottleneck.
Will my CPU bottleneck VOID/BREAKER?
It can, if your CPU is much weaker than your GPU. Check the exact balance of your build with our free bottleneck calculator before buying either component.
