MSI Afterburner: How to show both CPU and GPU frametimes

Maetharin

As per title. 

 

I want to specifically find out which of the two is bottlenecking the other in specific, repeatable situations in certain games.

I already know about the option to show the general frametime graph, but I can only find general GPU and CPU utilisation.

Both of which are useless if they´re both well below 70% utilisation and I still hit 50 fps in a game which I usually run at over 100 fps.

 

So, anyone know how to help me?

Any other programs I could use?

I am not aware of such a program but I do know that many games have these features built-in such as Call of Duty: Modern Warfare and Gears of War 5. If you have one of these games then maybe you could use them to determine the issue.

 

What are your system specs and resolution/graphics settings that you are playing at? Your GPU should always be sitting at around 100% utilization while playing games. Have you checked each thread on your CPU while gaming to determine if there is one thread that is maxing out?

Your issue doesn't sound like bottleneck. More like drivers or something else that prevents full utilization of GPU.

The game in question would be IL 2 Battle of Stalingrad in VR,

my config would be an OCd RTX 2060, R5 3600 and 16 GB 3200 CL16 RAM
