I play a lot of Fortnite and usually run about 20-40 ping and was wondering how to reduce this. I was thinking about a gaming router but they seem very pricey. If a gaming router isn’t the way is there other methods to reduce my ping. I have very limited knowledge on this subject, thanks.

20-40 isn't that bad. Since you are looking at 'gaming', assuming you are on Wifi. The best method is to wire your PC. Anything 'gaming' is all marketing to up the price.
