You need as much FPS as possible for certain games for competitive play like Counter Strike.

I went from 80 FPS (highest settings) to 365 FPS (capped to my alienware 360hz monitor) when I upgraded from my old rig (i7-8700K and 1070GTX) to a new one ( 7800X3D and 3090 RTX)

You really want low latency in competitive shooters. From mouse, to game engine, to drivers, to display. There's a lot of nuance to this area, which hardware vendors happily suggest to just throw money at.

Btw, if you're using gsync or freesync, don't allow your display to cap it, keep it 2-3 frames under max refresh rate. Reddit to the rescue.
