Bottlenecking: What Is It?
Alright, now you may be familiar with my setup (If not, check out this ) and should have heard the relative shortcomings of it, due to the mismatched parts. Now the fact that the parts were mismatched, were not the only problem - incorrectly placed parts can lead to hardware bricking, and an endless cycle of BSODs upon booting up. This is practically bottlenecking. Say you have an Intel Core i3 3220, and pair it up with a RTX 3060 (Somehow, don't bog me down with the details) and you'd expect to get the high performance rate from the 3060 - but you won't get no where, not one single bit. An i3 3220 is very, very weak - and its a useless of a component in the face of a RTX 3060. This is a classic example of why you do not pair a weak CPU with a powerful GPU. Powerful GPUs, which are mostly newer-gen cards, contain new and updated internal hardware, that differs from say older cards, from a couple of years back. Now the same goes for CPUs, in the past they had older architec...
