I currently have a i7 7700 cpu and a gtx 1080. I am planning to upgrade the cpu to a i9 10900k and the gpu to a rtx 3080 BUT my monthly budget allows me to just buy one at a time. I would go for the gpu first as that's where gaming improvement comes from but would my cpu bottleneck too bad for...

I am very VERY new to building PCs and I think I have run into a major problem. I was out and about looking for a better gpu when suddenly my friend sells me his 1080 ti for about 300. I was thrilled! When I hooked it up I saw minimal performance boost from my 1050 ti. When I started up a game I...

Hope y'all are doing well. I got an offer where i can get a used RX 580 8GB in cheap price(110 USD). The only problem is my cpu. I have a 500 wt psu so that isn't an issue. I'll be upgrading my cpu to something like i5 3570 in a couple of months but...

I found a Optiplex 990 MT Core i5 2400 3.10 GHz for cheap so I decided to upgrade it to gaming rig. I upgraded the graphics card to a RX 570, now I have noticed the huge CPU bottleneck as it would reach 100% and my GPU reaching 40%-50% while gaming. I'm wondering if my CPU is under performing...

I have noticed recently when playing games (specifically BF1) my FPS suffers despite my GPU reporting low usage - 45-75% (depending on game and map). However my CPU usage is consistently at 99-100% throughout gameplay. Idle usage is fine. I hope someone can advise on what the best solution is to...

Hi there , I am going to buy a new GPU for my build but i'm a bit of confused about the bottleneck issue. Currently i have a MSI GTX 960 GAMING 4GB which is i am using for 4 years & 2 months+. The budget is not much of an issue but i need the best performing GPU possible for my Ryzen 1700...

Soo in the last few months I started to play some new games and I realized that in some of them the fps were very low, on ffxv with min presets and with all the nvidia options off, the fps is around 100 when not on combat, sometimes the cpu usage drops to 1% for like a sec, it happens often...

I've got an i5-8400 at the moment paired with a GTX 1080. I mainly play VR with the Valve Index and would like to consistently hit 144fps on Half-Life: Alyx. I can either invest in a CPU upgrade now or wait and save up until the (hypothetical) RTX 3080 Ti releases. The problem is I'm concerned...

Hi there, I am in a dilemma now as i have seen the 3600 being £170 on ccl and since the much improved IPC i am wondering whether to buy it.

My current setup is: an old a10 7800 + sapphire rx550 2gb. I want to upgrade it, but only the gpu (for the moment), to a RX 580 8gb. Will it affect performance in any way until I can also upgrade my cpu? (hoping to play medium-high settings 1080p)

Hey guys, first time here, I recently upgraded my GPU, I have a GTX 1660 now, however I think I'm experiencing a little bottleneck during my game sessions. Checking on afterburner results that I have constant 100% CPU usage, without any other CPU demanding processes running in the background...

So I just got a brand new NZXT prebuilt gaming PC. It has been perfect so far until today. I'm not sure what happened or how it occurred, but an issue came to light. I've been playing Rainbow Six Siege and It has been running smooth as can be, fan barely makes any noise, temps stay low. However...

Okay so, I run a amd ryzen 3 1300X with a geforce gtx 1050 ti from EVGA and I have 16 GB's of ram. when I start up for example RDR2 my task manager shows that RDR2 only uses 2% of my GPU, but at the same time my CPU is getting like 50% usage. I've tried a few thing to fix it but nothing seems...

Hello, I'm currently using i5 6600(non k) with RX 480 and after 2 years I'm thinking about upgrading my gpu. Had a lot to choose from and I'm thinking about the GTX 1080. Other choice was GTX 1070, but here in my country the price difference between these used GPU's is pretty small, only about...

Hello I want to buy a new gaming rig, CPU - RYZEN 9 3900X AND RTX 2080 SUPER, and I found bottleneck calculator and it says about 70% bottleneck?! So now I dont know, if it will run perfect or I will get some bottleneck?! Thank you.

I have recently upgraded all my components except my cpu because they died. I noticed that some games i used to play aren't preforming as well as they used to I downloaded msi afterburner and saw that while playing games I get 30-50% usage and 100% usage. I also noticed that my cpu temps are 100...

Basically im currently running an AMD R9 380 4G (gpu) and an fx 8350. I want to upgrade my gpu to a gtx 1070 (getting a VR kit) but im aware it will bottleneck due to my cpu. This would only be temporary as im planning to upgrade my cpu to a Ryzen 5 3500 (need to save up). My main question is...

Hello, I was just wondering if a Ryzen 5 1600 (OC'ed to 3.75) and a Rtx 2080 will create a bottleneck. I'm trying to play titles like CS:GO, OW and FN at 240fps on 1080p. Thanks

I bought a used Dell prebuilt that came with an i3 550 CPU for extremely budget gaming. After some research, it seems like my only upgrade option with the LGA 1156 socket is to an i5 650, which only still has 2 cores. Will upgrading to this i5 650 have any noticeable gaming performance increase...

So I was planning to buy a prebuilt pc wit that cpu but I don't know whether or not it will perform well in conjunction with the rtx 2070 super

I'm using an Intel Core i7 6700k at 4.3Ghz and a RTX 2080 TI. In some games my CPU usage is around 90 - 100% while my GPU doesn't get hit really. (Battlefield V: CPU 90 - 95% usage, GPU: around 50% usage) Is something wrong with my PC, is my CPU bottlenecking or is it just Battlefield V which...
