@RuLeZ I'm kinda lost right now after seeing this video, that xeon is older than the one I own and it doesn't bottleneck at all. Also it's the same workstation. He even runs the game on ultrawide monitor.

 

 

Its playing at 40 fps range, Witcher 3 uses 8 threads and its more GPU bound, which means that Witcher 3 needs better GPUs than CPUs.

But hey, just buy a GPU with your CPU and try it, if you notice that it doesnt play well, you can always change the CPU later.
