Understanding & Fixing Bottlenecks

CPU Bottleneck

Signs: Low GPU usage with high CPU usage, game stuttering.

Fix: Upgrade CPU, close background apps, lower CPU-heavy settings like draw distance.

GPU Bottleneck

Signs: High GPU usage with low CPU usage, low FPS at high settings.

Fix: Upgrade GPU, lower graphics settings, enable DLSS/FSR if available.

RAM & Storage

RAM Issue: Slow loading, system freezes. Fix: Add more RAM (16GB+ for gaming).

Storage Issue: Long load times. Fix: Switch HDD to SSD/NVMe.

Important Notes About Accuracy

No tool is 100% accurate - These results are estimates based on component specifications and typical workloads. Real performance varies by specific games/apps, driver versions, background processes, and cooling solutions.

Bottlenecks are normal - Every system has some bottleneck. Scores under 20% are generally acceptable. The goal is balance, not elimination.
