Is the bottleneck high?

I have an RTX 3090 on an Asus TUF b550 Plus and an AMD Ryzen 7 3700x, but I'm getting lower FPS than I should be able to according to the bottleneck computer, etc. My picture isn't the best either. I have a FHD 240hz monitor that runs at 200hz with GSync (the monitor is a Samsung LC27RG50).

Hello,

Got an FHD 240hz monitor

With Full-HD, the processor usually limits the power. This is also the case with the combination. The Ryzen 7 3700x is simply too weak for the RTX 3090.

You need to determine the cause why you do not reach the desired FPS.

Is the CPU due or the GPU?

This goes with the program “MSI Afterburner”. This allows you to create an ingame overlay that displays the utilisation of the graphics card during the game and the FPS.

I don’t know what games you’re playing and how much FPS you have, but the principle is always the same.

Figure 1:

Let’s say you have 100 FPS and the GPU load is 99%. This means that the graphics card is fully loaded. So you’ve got this 100 FPS because your graphics card just doesn’t work anymore. So you won’t get FPS anymore with a new CPU because the graphics card is limited.

To get more FPS, you should have the graphics settings or Set down resolution or get a stronger graphics card that will be limited later.

Figure 2:

Let’s say you have 100 FPS, but the GPU load is 50%. This means that the graphics card is not fully loaded. So you have this 100 FPS because your CPU just doesn’t manage anymore. So you won’t get FPS with a new graphics card, because the CPU is limited.

To get more FPS, you’d have to get a new CPU.

One is called GPU-Limit and the other CPU-Limit. This “power ratio” varies from game to game, from setting to setting and even within a game from scene to scene.

This is why these Bottleneck machines are also complete bullshit.

Only you can determine where the Bottleneck is and what you can do to get more performance, taking into account your games and settings.

There is no CPU GPU combination where the graphics card is always fully loaded. Except you combine the fastest CPU with a slow 15 year old graphics card. But that’s bullshit.

The only thing that matters is that you are satisfied with your FPS. And you’re not, you take the cause and then take appropriate steps to get your desired performance.

If you then find out the cause and then want to upgrade the CPU or graphics card, look for benchmarks on the Internet, which CPU or GPU you need to get your desired performance.

Here’s another tutorial to set up the MSI afterburner:

loud bottleneck calculator etc.

They’re bullshit.

I have an RTX3090 on an Asus TUF b550 Plus and an AMD Ryzen 7 3700x, but get little FPS should be possible as eig.

Your CPU is very likely at the limit in the scenario.

One should pay attention only to the GPU load and not to the CPU. The FPS that you have with a non-fulfilled GPU is the one that creates the CPU maximum.

Not every game uses all CPU cores. Many games also use only 2 or 4 cores. This allows you to be in the CPU limit when your CPU is not fully loaded. For example, if you look at the utilization of the individual cores.
