Welcome to PCHF. :)

When I was new into computers, somebody wiser than me said - "Never build based on a game, build based on your budget."

This is my advice to you, establish what you want to spend, and then you can assess how that will fall into your gaming wants.

As far as what you 'need' to run warzone, Activision has a whole page on the various specs to play their game at desired settings and refresh rates:
support.activision.com

Call of Duty: Warzone Caldera Sunset FAQ

support.activision.com support.activision.com


Knowing more about your PC would help us establish what parts are good and usable, and what would be better replaced-

Download and run the free version of speccy.

Once you have ran speccy, follow the instructions to upload a snapshot found here.


To publish a Speccy profile to the Web:
  1. In Speccy, click File, and then click Publish Snapshot.
  2. In the Publish Snapshot dialog box, click Yes to enable Speccy to proceed.
  3. Speccy publishes the profile and displays a second Publish Snapshot dialog box. You can open the URL in your default browser, copy it to the clipboard, or close the dialog box.

Knowing a your budget and the make of you PSU is necessary.

I could suggest hundreds if not thousands of upgrades, but that doesn't make sense unless you are going to be able to use that/need it.

You should be able to find the PSU model either on the back of the computer where you plug it in or by pulling off the side panels and looking at it that way.
