VikingHoarder thank you for posting the HWiNFO screenshot.
The DDR4 memory is in single channel mode, instead of dual channel mode. This is limiting CPU performance because single channel mode has half the memory bandwidth compared to dual channel mode.
Two memory sticks are required for dual channel memory mode to work. The memory sticks also have to be installed in the proper memory slots on the motherboard.
The Samsung M378A2G43AB3-CWE memory currently installed in your motherboard doesn't have good memory timings. It has a tCL memory timing of 21.
High performance DDR4 3200MHz memory has a tCL timing of 16.
Keep in mind the Intel H470 chipset on your motherboard limits memory overclocking to 2933MHz. So even if you purchase 3200MHz memory it will only run at 2933MHz with XMP memory overclocking enabled in motherboard BIOS settings.
I make no guarantees your PC will be able to play BF6 at 60fps, but your PC should be able to play BF6 at 60fps if a dual channel memory kit is installed with DDR4 3200MHz CL 16. The kit will come with two identical memory sticks.

VikingHoarder I should also mention that you should buy memory that's listed in the motherboard's qualified vendors list (QVL).
The motherboard should have the manufacturer and model number printed on it. With that information we can go to the motherboard manufacturer's website and lookup the memory QVL list.
Buying memory that's on the QVL list ensures maximum compatibility because the motherboard manufacturer has tested and tuned all the memory on the QVL list for that motherboard.
This ensures maximum memory performance and prevents crash errors such as 'GPU removed' and blue screen of death from occuring.

VikingHoarder if a memory upgrade isn't possible. Go into BF6 advanced graphics settings and limit the framerate to 30fps. This should prevent network lag.

tyvm for your help. i'm not sure an upgrade is possible right now, but at least i'm not pulling my hair out trying to figure things out
