Bottleneck

liammcninch

I currently have an 18% bottleneck with a 1070ti. What is the best option for me to get rid of this. I currently am running 16g of ram ddr4. An Intel i5 7400 3.0ghz amd a msi motherboard also an ssd and 2tb hard drive. Any suggestions?

Wait how do you know this number?

 

Best option for you is probably a 6700K/7700K or a move to a different platform

 

Ryzen 2600 would probably be a nice option for you if you do decide to move platforms

This chart shows that your CPU would only bottleneck in a worst case scenario and you generally should not have a problem. 

 

As for a solution, an i7 7xxx or i7 8xxx is the only option.

Bottleneck calculators aren't something you should base your build off. The thing holding you back at the moment is your CPU though, I'd step that up to an i7-6700K or 7700K.

Your PC is perfectly fine for 60hz gaming, there's no real reason to upgrade it.

I edit my posts a lot, Twitter is @LordStreetguru just don't ask PC questions there mostly...

What is your budget/country for your new PC?

 

what monitor resolution/refresh rate?

 

What games or other software do you need to run?

bottleneck in what? ms paint? games?

what resolution are you playing games at? is your cpu maxed out and gpu under utilized?

 

1080p 60hz and 1440p 60hz should be easily playable with your specs depending on the game
