Hey there,

 

I wanted to know if my configuration does bottleneck anz parts in my PC (money is not the problem, but I want to go as cheap as possible):

 

CPU: Intel Core i5 7500

MB: AsRock B115M-ITX

GPU: Zotac GeForce GTX 1080 Mini

RAM: G.Skill Value 4 8GB 2400 MHz

PSU: 500 Watt Corsair 80+ Bronze

 

Thanks

No problem, I just don't think the PSU is up for the task.

what in the world is that motherboard? also i would like to point out that it really depends on what resolution you plan on playing at so you should probably tell us what resolution you plan on playing at. 

Mostly on Ultrawide. But also on WQHD

I would swap out that PSU straight away. Something like 550w EVGA G2/G3, Corsair AX/RMX, anything Seasonic.

 

I would also honestly (if money isn't the issue) throw out that 7500 and add a 7700 - Games really starting to want those extra threads, Watch Dogs 2 sees a massive improvement between HT on and off
