Hello.
-So unfortunately months ago i upgraded my gpu and psu, but due to the lack of knowledge as an amateur i didnt recognize the bottleneck that ill recieve, i did a big mistake for not checking if the cpu is compatible and will deal greatly with the gpu that i was about to buy. So likewise i felt somehow a compunction, i felt really bad because i spent a bunch of moneys on a gtx 1660 and a corsair cx550 thinking that it'll improve my ingame performance such as fps. My current processor is i5-4440 3.10ghz, it was hell for me to see that this cpu and the gtx 1660 will produce +37% bottleneck, which means that ill lose about half of the fps that i wouldve got with a better cpu. And i can really say that it discouraged me to that max seeing that even the low end games couldnt run in +100-120fps due to the bottleneck, simply the cpu limits the gpu usage and it doesnt let it work, in every game i check the task manager, the cpu is always like 90-100%, and the gpu wont even work itself up to 7-10%, which means the gtx is sleeping always when im playing games in this computer. So i did some research, and in this case its always better to buy a new cpu, but i dont wanna spend a lot of moneys changing the whole motherboard. I saw with what cpus was my motherboard compatible with, uptop with all 4th generation processors. I did some bottleneck test which one will fit me the best, tried every processor that my motherboard is compatible with and in the end i came out with the fact that the least bottleneck cpu ill get is 7percentage with this i7-4790k 4.00ghz.
So my question right now is, because im looking forward to swap this i5-4440 and buy a i7-4790k.... Will i see any kind of improvement in game? Will this tell a big difference ingame? From +37%bottleneck to 7% bottleneck (1080p)..! In my comprehension i believe one hundred percent that simply ill get a +50fps increase in each and every single game based on what ive checked and what ive seen. Because this i5 is killing me and its not letting the gpu work at all. So with the i7 i believe that ill see big improvements.... (Cant even make ingame graphics low because it doesnt matter if its low or high, i usually get the same fps everytime due to bottleneck, even when i stretch the game which means an extra fps, i usually end up with a lower fps because i decrease the gpu usage and increase the cpu usage), frustrating as hell.
