Am I getting bottlenecked?

[technak]

Hi, I just bought a 1080 ti and am wondering if I should upgrade my cpu to not get bottlenecked by it. My current specs are as follows 

 

4770k clocked to 4.1 ghz

32 gb 2133 kingston memory

noctua dh14

1080 ti

ssd

 

Im mainly using the computer to play playerunknowns battlegrounds and am getting pretty shitty performance. im also running windows 7, could that be a problem aswee?

No bottleneck, PUBG just runs like a turd.

Which resolution?

At 1080p, probably, at 2k, maybe, at 4k there shouldn't be bottlenecks.

Yeah 1080p

your monitor is basically bottlenecking your card..
also, unfinished games are exactly that, unfinished.. don't expect polished gameplay or stable performance
this is why it is still in early access, it is basically a paid beta that upgrades to the full game once released.

benchmark your computer with known games and benchmark, collecting those results that will give you a much clearer indication on what level your computer performs at than an unfinished buggy game

nah

your monitor is basically bottlenecking your card - hehe  oki, ill run that once I get home from work and post an update, do you recommend doing my benchmarks somewhere other than 3dmark?

There is not really CPU bottleneck even on 1080p. The game itself is the bottleneck.

Well I think it depends on the GPU utilization, because if the utilization is low and fps are low, than there is a bottleneck because your not getting the most performance out of your GPU. If your running a higher resolution such as 4K, and the GPU utilization is higher and fps is higher, than there shouldnt be a bottleneck because your getting the most performance out of your GPU. The 1080ti is best suited for 4K gaming at high/ultra settings.

unigine benchmarks.. catzilla.. known games with included benchmarks (tomb raider, gta v etc)
the more results you get, the clearer the indication on your computers performance
