Question I'm curious about what might be impacting/bottlenecking my PC when gaming ?

I have been playing games on low-performance settings, but my PC still sometimes struggle to maintain a consistent 60fps. And from reading a little bit it may be my CPU as the culprit. I also have Chrome and other unnecessary apps open while gaming,

I don't have much pc spec knowledge but I want to understand what could be holding my Pc's gaming performance back. I have attached my CPU and GPU data from Speccy below. From initial research, it may sound like the CPU clock speed is too low for gaming and maybe bottlenecking my GPU and is running high % over the GPU. It could be something else but I am open and interested to know.

CPU:
Name Intel Core i7
Code Name Skylake
Specification 11th Gen Intel Core i7-11700F @ 2.50GHz

GPU:
NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060

Thank you, I appreciate the advice. 🙏

The 3060 is meant for gaming at 1080P.

So drop the resolution is best or look to change graphics card or monitor.

Thanks for pointing it out for me.
