Does a amd a10 5800k bottleneck a gtx 560

[Rj2898]

I have a question bc I have some quick spikes where my gpu usage will dip to about 50% for about a second every 5 seconds or so it's quite anoying.... just didn't know if it was a bottleneck. I have a amd a10 5800k with a evga gtx 560 sc 2gb also the a10 is at 4.4ghz quad core.
Thank u in advance

That card should not be bottlenecked by the A10-5800K. Is this multiplayer gaming on a busy server when this happens? Have you checked the CPU usage when this occurred?

Btw, GPU usage will never remain constant. It varies according to the demand on it at each new frame.

This is when I'm playing the campaign of rocket league at max settings at like 70 fps then it freezes for just a split second for a while and no I haven't checked the usage... one thing I noticed is that it's after gaming for about 10 mins and it shouldn't be over heating it's liquid cooled.....but it's ocd to 4.4ghz could it be unstable bc it's only .2ghz over the turbo

If instability was the problem, the game would crash. That's not a very demanding game. There shouldn't be any problems with the CPU or gfx card you have. Do you have a lot of stuff running in the background at the same time? Check your tray for things you can disable during gaming.
You may want to run CCleaner and have it do the Clean and Registry portions both: https://www.piriform.com/ccleaner

Check the CPU usage. If it is in the high 90% when this happens, it would definitely be CPU bottleneck. But I'd be surprised if that were the case.

Ok I will check it next time if it's a bottleneck that's gonna suck bc I got a new rog crossblade mobo in an fm2 socket and u can't really get anything much better in that socket

ok so my cpu usage in that game only got to a highest 65 70 % one thing i though of is could i not have enough power to run my system? bc i have a corsair 500w a gtx 560 and a amd a10 5800k with a water cooler and alot of fans .... could that be the issue?

 

[Rj2898]

my gpu usage is all over the place it goes from 100 to 50 alot on the graph

 

[clutchc]

CPU usage of 65%-70% shows there is still some headroom, no CPU bottleneck. Especially if your GPU can run @ 100% when needed. And yes, that is normal. The GPU usage will vary according to the demand on it, just like the CPU. If the freezing issue is just that one game, it might be game-related.

So I've also noticed that it does the same thing in dying light and gta 5 now and Ive been playing these games on it for a month now and it's quick unplayable when it freezes for a split second

It does it about 60 times in 5 minutes and not sure why one thing I was thinking is that maybe I'm running out of power that my psu can't handle it I have a 500w corsair
