I put up this build for tips on what to use. Eventually I got the thumbs up from everyone but I just saw Linus' video on "bottlenecks". Is my GPU being Bottlenecked? And if so is it worth switching to a different graphics card? Thanks!

No, that CPU is plenty powerful and will last a few years. No need to worry.

Should be fine, if you want to tell look at how much GPU is being used and how much CPU. GPU isn't near 100% but CPU is then it's bottlenecked.

if you watched the entire video you would know that everything being bottlenecked no matter what

but this looks good 

Yeah I heard that. I was just afraid of a crazy bottleneck like my gpu running at 50% or something like that. I mean it is 100 bucks more expensive.

That's totally normal. Theres nothing to worry about

Thats that. If you need to get in touch chances are you can find someone that knows me that can get in touch.
