[SOLVED] CPU Bottlenecking?? R3 1200 4-Core, GTX 1050ti, 16gb 2400mhz quad channel

[crowlwi]

Is my CPU bottlenecking the rest of my rig? Ive found that even when upgrading my Graphics card from a 1030 to a 1050ti and adding 8gb more ram, my in game fps and such didnt increase, and my streaming is still mediocre quality at best, with low frames and rare freezes. Is my Ryzen 3 1200 Quad-Core bottlenecking the rest of my rigs hardware?

Hardware:
Ryzen 3 1200 Quad Core
MSI B350M Tomahawk
16gb 2400mhz Patriot Viper DDR4 RAM
Gigabyte 1050 Ti GDDR5 4GB (Windforce OC)
Thermaltake 500W Something Pretty Cheap

No, you do not have a bottleneck with your CPU. You also are not running quad channel. That is a dual channel board, even if you are running 4 sticks of RAM.

When you upgrade a GPU you should do a clean uninstall of the GPU drivers. I would use the DDU tool below and remove the old drivers in safe mode. Then boot back up and download the current 1050ti drivers from Nvidia.

Depends on what somebody considers bottleneck,also on the resolution and quality one is gaming at and the games in question,also when gaming AND streaming this CPU is bottlenecking that's 100% guaranteed because if the game doesn't use 4 cores,which most do,the streaming does use all 4 so there is bottlenecking.

Its a budget CPU paired with a budget GPU, there is no bottleneck. If you want to stream games, then you need more than 4 threads, it has nothing to do with the CPU bottlnecking the GPU that the OP is running.
