There is no such thing as "bottlenecking"
If, by that, you mean that upgrading a cpu or graphics card can
somehow lower your performance or FPS.
A better term might be limiting factor.
That is where adding more cpu or gpu becomes increasingly
less effective.

Your parts seem relatively well balanced cpu vs. gpu.

The i7-14700F has a base 65w power and includes a reasonable RM1 air cooler.
Just my opinion, but spend some $25 more for the non F version of the processor.
Sooner or later you will wish you had integrated graphics.

It's good for a laugh though. I googled the "bottleneck calculator" and since the 9950X wasn't available as a choice I input the 7950X and 4090 and clicked "calculate" and it told me that the 4090 is bottlenecked 21% by the CPU.

What? How can anyone use that site and consider the information given remotely useful. It's completely useless garbage. 🤣

But some people do.

We get references to that thing here all the time.

Hard to believe... even if you know nothing about PCs common sense should reveal the info given is worthless.

Intel Core 14900k is too weak for RTX 4090 on 3840 × 2160 pixels screen resolution for Processor Intense Tasks.


This configuration has 22.3% of processor bottleneck .

🤣

common sense

I would suggest the 7800X3D for gaming. No worries about processor instability.

The Intel Bartlett lake would be the redeeming CPU lineup to save it, have to see reviews and decide if it is worth it.

Bottlenecking calculators are a bit of a joke. Because every task is different. Some games are more CPU heavy, others more GPU heavy. People play at different settings. You might run into memory limits first.

I have one game where my current config has a 6% GPU bottleneck according to those calculators. And yet the game I would need to upgrade for is heavily CPU limited, so much that my GPU clocks down and is still only at 30% usage.
How can a GPU running at 30% utilization at half it's clock "bottleneck" a CPU that is running at 95% on all cores?

I have another game where my GPU is indeed the limiting factor, but only if I disable my 200 fps cap, because it can't do more than 230 fps in that game, while my CPU could sufficiently feed a stronger GPU at much higher framerates.

In both cases, the "GPU bottleneck" is irrelevant.

498 / 5,000
In my opinion, all the results of the bottleneck calculator are not only wrong, but if you follow the instructions given by them, you will also waste money unnecessarily and raise tension separately. simply Check ur cpu and gpu bottleneck with formark when you run formark then during this process you can check if forkmark is running smoothly then there is no problem with card and processor and if it is halting So assume that someone is bottlenecking the GPU and CPU
