Am i being bottlenecked??

[Ruckledge]

 

Im getting around 40-50 fps in Assassins Credd Odyssey on the zotac rtx 2060 at the highest settings as well as lowest settings at 1080p

My specs:

CPU: i5 6402p 2.8ghz

Mobo: H110m-s2-cf

RAM: 8gb ddr4 corsair vengence

GPU: Zotac RTX 2060

PSU: vs 650

your cpu is slow and can't probably push more than 40-50 fps, regardless of the video settings.

so if i upgrade my mobo and go for an i5 9400f....Will it solve my problem?what cpu would  you recommend bdw

Yes it is being bottlenecked. Get an R5 1600AF with a B450 board for around 170$, if you're on a smaller budget, go for a used 6th gen i7 and keep your mobo

Yes, it would help. I wouldn't call it a resolve. Your mainboard is H110m so it is pretty restricted in its options. Switching both wouldn't be more expensive in total.

I'm sure there are a lot of used 6 cores for a reasonable prize available, sometimes including a feasible mainboard.

The i5 8400/9400 is a low-clcoked 6-core without Hyperthreading. It would help a bit, but it's already outdated and sometimes a bottleneck.

 

I'm even amazed how you get those 40-50 fps in AC:O with the CPU you have; if I had to guess I would have said 30ish. The 2060 is capable of a lot more.

 

You need a Ryzen Zen+ or zen2 (1600AF, 2600X, 2700, 3600, 3700) or an Intel i5 8600K/9600K, i7 8700K,9700 or i9 9900K.

That also means a motherboard upgrade.

Yes CPU bottlenecked. Also get more ramz - 16gb is optimal in newer games

[Constantin]

You need at least 16GB of RAM, you will see a huge difference.

And you are very lucky to get those FPS with this hardware.

EDIT: your CPU max turbo boost at 3.4Ghz, do you run it at that speed?

Please don't post multiple times about same subject.

Look for a used i7-6700k...gives you 8 threads...don't need to overclock it.  16gb of ram is better.  Are you using an SSD?  If not buy a small one and install your games on it. 

 

That said Odyssey is very poorly optimized...don't expect huge improvements...

[Ruckledge]

Ok im gonna upgrade in a month or two........But for now is there any possible fix to stop or reduce the bottlenecking

[Stu_Bear]

Spending money and doing a little work is the only way...sorry.

There is - downclock the GPU as far as it goes. At best, lock it to a lower power state.

Won't improve performance though. XD

The only way to fix a bottleneck is either improve the part that's causing the bottleneck or make the thing you're concerned with work harder. For a graphics card, this means crank up the settings to ultra and throw in things like super sampling resolution.
