Is my computer bottlenecked?

[bomerr]

Nah, i'm just kidding. I know my CPU isn't bottlenecked.

 

My friend asked me build him a PC so we went x99 with a GTX 980. 

Since I also have a X99 system with a GTX 980 I decided to combine the rams and SLI the GPUs for fun.

 

Just wanted to share the benchmarks.

Case is a Fractal Design R5.

Do you know what bottleneck means?

I am tired of the question. the better term is CPU bound, and you are not likely to run into that with any game.

a bottleneck is forcing too much data through too small of a hole. if you have 4 lanes of PCIe 2.0 you might bottleneck, SSDs are bottlenecked by SATA. an inferior CPU can limit performance of the GPU, but it goes both ways and it isn't always necessary to have the GPU as the limiting factor.

Yes.

 

[bomerr]

Yes.

 

Thanks man. Do you know what I could do to fix the bottleneck? Would adding another gfx card help? 

[ANewFace]

Yes.

 

In case you didn't get this was a joke it was

[zappian]

Is this a joke question?

[Firearm2112]

Is this a joke. you have two 980s and an X99 processor

If you want to be a show off with your new hardware go make a build log instead of being a troll. Such things are no appreciated around here and will earn you a report pretty quick.

No. 

 

 

I think you'd need to replace your 980's with 290X's and then maybe you could melt the glass enough to unbottleneck your system.  

[bomerr]

No.

how can i do the 6-way SLI?

Trollolololol.

Dude he's trolling u. It was a joke. Ur system is not bottlenecked.

[D2ultima]

Here's what, bro. That PC is really really bottlenecked. You should donate it to me so I can research how to un-bottleneck it. We'll find you a different, un-bottlenecked PC, don't worry.

[Linux User]

No.

Make sure they are reference ones with broken fans

[Spev]

No.

Yes, he really needs to avoid water cooling. In this case in order to remove his bottleneck, he'll need to melt the glass. If he water cools the heat will be transferred out of the system more efficiently and make the inside possibly less cooler. 

 

OP please don't water cool if you ever hope to remove your bottleneck.

 

Why I am feeding the trolls

PCi-E risers.
