[QUOTE="plat, post: 880515, member: 74969"] Very interesting, Dan! Is there an example you have of a bottleneck, how would your software depict this, and how would you interpret the result and the origin of the bottleneck? I like how it's easily seen in the System tray, here I can see w/confidence there's no problem. (y) I'd always assumed "bottleneck" applied to cpu-gpu mismatch, where the weaker cpu was holding back a more powerful gpu, resulting in loss of frames. BTW, I also have a 6700K paired with a GTX 1080 Founders card-- a pair that has never caused any issues whatsoever. It's just depressing slightly that Intel is coming out w/all this new stuff, it rubs it in that this hardware is supposedly getting long in the tooth. I sorta complained about this in another thread. :mad: Ain't got no money. [spoiler][ATTACH type="full" alt="bottleneck.png"]239196[/ATTACH][/spoiler] [/QUOTE]
