Hey everyone! I'm trying to figure out if I'm running into a bottleneck with my current PC setup. I've got a Ryzen 5 7600X CPU, a GeForce 5070 GPU, and 16GB of RAM. I'm using a 1440p monitor that supports 165Hz. I checked a bottleneck calculator, and it showed a high percentage for CPU-intensive tasks. Is my setup gonna struggle? I've already bought all the parts!

To be honest, there's always going to be some part of your system holding back performance depending on what you’re playing. Bottlenecks are part of computing life! You’ll likely enjoy your games without worrying too much about it.
Bottlenecks can sound scary, but don’t let the fear of them ruin your fun! Your system is modern, so yeah, if one component is limiting performance, it doesn't necessarily mean it won't play games well. Just play around with your settings and have a blast!
Honestly, those bottleneck calculators are pretty misleading. With a mid-range CPU and GPU like yours, you should be just fine for most typical games. The term 'bottleneck' gets thrown around a lot but doesn’t mean you’ll have performance issues when you're gaming.
Don't stress it! As long as you're not doing heavy CPU-only tasks all the time, you should be good. Most games that are more GPU-intensive won't see huge drops in performance. Just enjoy your setup!
