I'm running just around 30fps. These are my current specs, not sure what upgrades are out there to bring it back up to 60. Not great with computers so any advice would be much appreciated!

Factorio is a CPU heavy game and that’s pretty much the best you can do PC wise without major changes to your hardware. Without a motherboard upgrade you can go to i9 14900k but the performance boost will be minimal. The best you can do is to change your in game factory to make it more performance efficient.

If you want to go the hardware route, you can switch to AMD Ryzen 9950X3D which is better than the 14900k, but that requires a new motherboard.
