Do you even bottleneck?

....bro?  :D

joke aside, your phenom is still awesome! Check aout some benchmarks for your favorite game and upgrade inly if min framerate is a duble digit higher in %! :P

Bro,

 

I try to bottleneck atleast 4 times a day, but something's holding me back. Not sure if its a weak PSU or Cheap VRM's. Anyways, I will get to the bottom of this eventually. Still pushing for 10.0GHz

HAHAHAHAHA

 

don't worry, potatoes OP, they'll get you to 20 GHz if you want them to. No sweat, no cooling needed, not even 1°C above ambient, dem potatoes

 

 

Mostly Battlefield 4 though where it is at 100%.

 

BF4 is an extremely CPU-intensive game that will really push most mid-range to low-end CPUs to their limits. This in conjunction with maybe Crysis will probably be the only times when a bottleneck is actually pronounced (unless you're doing something extreme like Pentium + HD 7970).

 

Other times, there may be a tiny bottleneck but not enough to notice.

Do you think I should upgrade my cooler and go sli? I  should have enough pcie bandwidth at 10ghz no?
