Yes, there will be a bottleneck. There will always be a bottleneck. Sometimes the CPU will be the bottleneck, sometimes the GPU will be the bottleneck, and sometimes something else will be the bottleneck.

 

If what you are really asking is "will there be such a severe bottleneck that I should spend less money on the GPU?" I would say "no, it's a fine pairing."

Yeah a bit, the 7800X3D or 14700K/14900K would get more out of it. But, it is fine, I wouldn't bother upgrading the CPU.

this and the fact that the 12900kf is a good chip, means you won't really notice a bottleneck at all

Imagine everything i have written in a Linus Voice/ linus tone (Spock live long and prosper gif here ,idk why tho, i guess i just want to say that i like star trek and am waiting for new seasons of the ongoing shows), But seriously, a lot of what i type only makes sense when said in a Linus tone from an older ltt video (circa 2017-2019 & now 2024-onwards) basically before he got a beard and a lot of it should make sense even in a Linus with a beard face.

also note as per the latest typing test on my laptop, my accuracy is 69%

 

I'm not weird/creepy, I'm just observant I have ADHD and am not on any meds for it.
