Hi, I have been having problems with my i5-7600k ever since I got my gtx 1080 a couple months ago. It hits 100% CPU usage relatively easily (even while idle on the desktop sometimes) and causes insane mouse input delays while playing games. This has been happening on Rainbow Six Siege lot and...

Is it worth it? I'm a small budget type of guy. Underage and all that. Now I have the permission to save up and buy myself a rtx 2060 which would be huge. However my current cpu is an i7 3770 and my gpu a gtx 1050Ti (can run recent games on low/medium) and my monitor is 1080p 60Hz. I'm gonna...

Hello, Recently I bought a brand new Ryzen 1600 processor, and I m very happy with it. Now, I had the opportunity to order an RTX 2060 for just 250$ brand new, but I m a little worried that my CPU will bottleneck the GPU. What do you guys think? Is this a good combo, or should I worry about a...

So, I'm looking to buy a new graphics card for my old office pc but the catch is that I will need to build a new pc in a year or two either way so I was thinking I could buy a alright GPU right now which definetly gets bottlenecked and then put it in my new machine later. So does the GPU get...

Is my PC CPU-bound? I like to play older games (CS:GO, R6S) competitively, so every increase in fps counts. I occasionally get stuttering/frame drops, nothing serious for casual gameplay but crippling in a competitive game. Specs: CPU: Intel i5-3450s 2.8 Ghz RAM: Kingston - HyperX Fury Red 8...

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...

With the new Asus TUF Models, i was convinced to buy the FX505DU model, which contained an AMD Ryzen 7 3750H and a GTX 1660ti 6GB DDR5 vRam. The AMD processor is comparable to the i5-8300H, so wouldn't that bottleneck the GPU a little? (Buying a gaming laptop for the first time so yeah :d...
