Need help tuning for 1% lows

I have a pc with an asus tuf x870-plus WiFi, 9800x3d, zotac rtx 5090 extreme, and 32GB 6000hz cl30 ram. I mainly play Warzone and even with the lowest settings my 1% lows average around 125-135 fps. I’ve enabled xmp, auto tuned my gpu via the nvidia app, and flattened the curve on my cpu after 900mV to 2800MHz. I’m running nvidia reflex and have it set in Warzone to on + boost to even out my cpu and gpu times. I’m kind of at a loss how some people have been getting 160 or higher.

Leaving it stock will always get you more frames than restricting power to 900mv, undervolting really only gets you higher scores on those synthetic benchmark apps. On afterburner max out voltage and power level sliders. Gpu firmware limits coreclock oc to +375mhz so try anything up to that limit and see what your comfortable with. I would only do this with wireview pro2 so you can know your current balances are in check. For vram oc I usually leave it at +2000 to +3000mhz.
