[SOLVED] Am I bottlenecked?

[hbelser]

I play a game semi-competitively. To get the best experience and have an edge, obviously we rely on Ping and PC components. After just building my newest PC I knew that 1080p was the only format Id use so I found zero reason to spend 3k on a gaming PC for parts to not be utilized completely. With that being said, would you say based on my specs my system isnt getting full potential?

Mobo: Asus X470
RAM: TridentZ 16GB 3200
HD: 860 1TB SSD
CPU: Ryzen 1600 OC’d to 3.7 base
GPU: RTX 2070 OC’D +80

I play on 144hz and see a usual consistent 144, but dips down to 90-110 and im just wondering if this is a bottlnecking issue. I didnt buy the 2080 for that reason. Any advice on whether or not my specs could be bettered to suit a constant 144 would be helpful

1080P? 1440P?

Check CPU/GPU usage and report back what they are when gaming. Use HWmonitor.

I play on 1080p only. Atleast until higher FPS support arrives for 1440. Ill take a look at this tonight! Thanks!

Sounds good. If you GPU usage is much lower then your CPU usage you could try running the game in 2X DSR which runs it at double the game resolution then scales it back to 1080P which will make the game look much sharper. This can work much better over AA settings.
