Hello everyone, my current cpu is a ryzen 5 1600x and my gpu is a gigabyte rtx 2080 gaming oc. I mostly play insurgency sandstorm at 1440p. Framerate is decent enough averaging at around 90-100 fps, but I get dips to the 50's and inconsistent frametimes leaving it pretty stuttery. My gpu usage...

So my current Setup is: i7 6700 8 GB DDR3 RAM (getting 16 soon) GTX 1070 Asus H110M-K Motherboard. I have a 1440p 165 HZ Monitor. But I cant really get that 144-165 fps on many games. MSi Afterburner shows both my CPU AND GPU to be around 70 -80% so I'm not sure what the bottleneck here is...

So, I have noticed that some games that I play scratch up a bit at hard parts to handle (the framerate will temporarily go to like 20-40 FPS). Examples are Spiral Knights, Assassin's Creed Brotherhood , Minecraft+mods. During those periods of scratch (not good performance), when I look at Task...

I already have a PC with a r5 3600 and GTX1060, looking to upgrade, should I get a 2070 Super or 2080 or 2080ti, will the 3600 be a problem for any of those? (bottleneck wise) I'll be playing games such as Rainbow Six: Siege, CoD MW, Satisfactory, Shadow of the Tomb Raider and Apex Legends...

Hi guys! I've recently bought a few components for my desktop PC (new motherboard, CPU and RAM sticks) but I've experiencing some issues. Since I installed them I get mini freezes, generally while mid/high PC usage, I've tested a few things. I still can't find out which part is the problem. I'm...

Hello! I am trying to choose a suitable intel 1150 processor to upgrade my trusty old rig with, and I am not sure what the best course of action is for my situation. I put the PC together myself so I do know a bit about hardware, but I am a layman and my insight is limited. The point of the...

I started getting into pc's 2 years ago and gaming. I had a pc with an fx4300 and a Gt710. I decided to upgrade it to a Gtx1050 2nd because most of the cards would get bottlenecked. It is still decent though and can pull games but with money to spare, I'm going to get a ryzen 5 2600, B450 and...

My question is, TUF505DU-EB74 , runs a R7-3750H , and a GTX1660ti mobile. So, does this laptop bottleneck? if so, are there any other laptops, that are in the same price range ( 900 - 1100 $) That can do a better performance?

I have an rtx 2080 ti and an Intel i7 4790. The bottleneck calculators say it is being bottlenecked to a 40 % but is that actually true? I mean, as long as the cpu is over the recommended specs of x program it shouldn't affect fps that much, right? Or is my system being SERIOUSLY (not only a few...

My PC is not anything super powerful but it is much much slower than it should be when opening programs or powering on and seems to also not be performing as it should when gaming. I'm pretty sure it's a either under powered RAM or a slow HDD. When I look in task manager my disk usage maxes out...

A few days ago after waking my PC from sleep, upon entering into anything gaming or video related, my CPU usage immediately shoots to 100% regardless of settings and my GPU usage doesn't go above 10%. In games where I before held a stable frame-rate at 120 fps or higher (usually 144), I now...
