Is my cpu bottle necking

[Heyitsrepaid]

Hello everyone reading this I am concerned about my cpu bottle necking my gpu I have a rx 580 8gb for my gpu and my cpu is the ryzen 3200g and I noticed when I play games like apex legends and borderlands 3 my gpu is usually at 100% and my cpu is about at 60 to 80%. I’m new to the pc area so I was wondering if this is ok or whatever.

A bottleneck occurs when X(e.g a GPU) hardware does not perform to its potential because its held back by a slower piece of hardware in the system. 

 

So when you say your CPU is bottlenecking your GPU then you mean that your CPU is slow enough to the point of  "forcing" your GPU not to be able to work at a 100% usage, here you describe the exact opposite (your GPU working at a 100% while your CPU chilling at 80%)  if anything you could say that your GPU is bottlenecking your CPU.

 

But that's not the case since its normal (especially in a mainly graphics intensive workload) not to have the CPU working at 100%

 

your GPU working at 100% is a good indicator that there is no bottleneck.
