Is my cpu bottlenecking or my gpu

[Anomtheboss]

I have a rtx 2060 and

my cpu is Ryzen 7 2700. The problem is I am not getting good performance, also the benchmarks that I saw on youtube is far better than what I am getting. During games my cpu usage is 15-25% and my gpu is 85- 90% 

My specs -

CPU- Ryzen 7 2700

GPU- RTX 2060

Ram- 1x16gb

Motherboard- B450m bakooka

Power supply- 550w 

So is my cpu bottlenecking or my gpu is bottlenecking and how do I  fix this.

It's your single-channel memory, most likely.

You have a single stick of memory. Problem found. What speed does it run at?

[Tom_nerd]

what applications are you using?

[Tom_nerd]

and also I agree with @jaslion and @Mateyyy its probably the single dimm

r7 2700 is still a beast and i dont think it will cause any bottleneck
most likely your ram try put another stick borrow from a friend or something

You could sell that 1x16 kit on marketplace or ebay or something, and get a 2x8 kit, or just get a second stick of the same memory you have now.

Ryzen needs dual channel so you should always have ram in pairs of 2. Either sell the stick and get a 2x8gb kit of 3000mhz or higher or get a second 16gb stick of the same speed.

cpu usage is 15-25%

is this overall or single core usage?

 

you might be single thread limited

overall

try checking individual cores, see if any threads are constantly above 85% (normally the first thread)

 

you can use task manager, no % for individual core, but u can eyeball it

 

or you can try MSI afterburner to monitor more things in the system, it has overlay you can use to monitor while playing games too

[Anomtheboss]

i have checked it before
