Question regarding bottleneck

[Shadowzzl]

Hi there,i wanted to know if my CPU is bottlenecking my GPU,since i'm not so sure about that.
Info with HWMonitor : http://imgur.com/HDtwda9
Those are with just Blade & Soul and Chrome open,is my CPU dead?,would changing to an i5 4460 solve the bottleneck issue for that game/in general?,thanks in advance~

Wow, at that temperatures your CPU should be burnt or dead until now.
Also you have 1.4 + V on cores... maybe there are some missreadings, I hope, because those are just crazy.
I recommend you to change that CPU.

Yeah I agree with ChumP... those temps are terrible and\or something is terribly wrong. Otherwise I've played Blade and Soul as well and that game is very CPU bound so yes there is a bottleneck and even if you upgrade the CPU the bottleneck will always be there but it will help but it's not going to change things drastically.

As for the CPU upgrade, I won't go with intel because that means that you must change your motherboard too. The GTX 750 can run on low -end CPU's .

AMD Athlon X4 860K - 68.99 $

As previously mentioned and I just want to stress this a bit more. Upgrading the CPU is a wise idea but when it comes to Blade and Soul there will still be a bottleneck even if you went with an Intel CPU. Upgrading on your CPU on your current platform would be good idea for all other game situations but when it comes to MMO's the CPU will always be the limiting factor before the GPU does.

I get that there will always be bottleneck but i'll take a rough guess and say that not as hard as i'm getting it now,like...my gpu is running at below 10% when my cpu is at 100

I picked i5 4460 because i will be switching mobos and CPUs with my aunt since she doesn't use her computer.

Then , you shoud go ahead and buy the X4 860k, this will improve your performance greatly, withoput changing your motherboard.

Off topic: If i have graphic lag in a game because of the awful bottleneck my computer suffers,is it possible that skills/attacks are performed slower by my character?,because i have 100ms on B&S,i know it's not perfect but it's not bad either but i feel my attacks/skills kinda slow.

 

[ChumP]

If you have low fps in your games, automatically the input lag appears, so yes , that's true.
The lower your framerate the greater your input lag is.

I meant to say my aunt has the i5 4460 and the motherboard for it,so it's just a swap i wouldn't have to spend a penny

I see...i'm changing to an i5 4460 on saturday,hopefully the bottleneck gets fixed,i read somewhere that 4460 won't bottleneck my 750 so i guess it'll be fine.

 

[ChumP]

Then , just go for it. The I5 would bring a big improvement, in the games you're playing.
