Hey everyone, is there a way to do an online check of your system to see if it is running at its best for gaming? I mean, to check your hardware and software settings to make sure you are not bottlenecking or missing some important components / settings?

Im fairly new to it all and so want to make sure Im up to speed.

Thanks for any help and advice.

Maybe try hwmonitor (monitors both CPU and gpu and maybe other things, not too sure as I don't use it) cpu-z (CPU) and gpu-z (gpu)

I'm currently new to the whole pc gaming aspect as well, but I have installed gpu-z, and it allows me to monitor the speed, temperature, usage, which pci slot your graphics card is, as well as many other things. I'm guessing if there was an comparability/bottlenecking issue, then you could probably see it by the gpu-x readings
