Hey guys so i want to know what exactly is bottleneck? Example : a cpu can bottleneck the game or gpu ... How so? Like the game will slow down? Or stuttering or low fps
Thanks for help
take something like a pentium G4560
it is perfectly able to play a lot of games at ~60 fps, but thats it
if you had a 144hz monitor and a gtx 1080 ti
the system would still struggle at ~60 fps because that is all the pentium is capable of
it is the bottleneck, the 1080 ti is more than capable of reaching 144 fps but you will never see those fps because the pentium cannot keep up
this is why it is super important to look at cpu benchmarks when you are deciding on what gpu pairings will be balanced
you simply cannot pair a weak cpu with a strong gpu or vice versa and expect it to perform well
" Like the game will slow down? Or stuttering or low fps " yes, all three
