As in, how can you tell? Is it via CPU usage? I have an i7 4770k at 4.4GHz and a GTX 1080. I ran into serious issues with Fallout 4 and GTA V; the GPU usage is low and the CPU usage is normal (30-50% and 75% at the most demanding areas in FO4).
I have a screenshot of Fallout 4 where the CPU and GPU usage(s) are below 40% and I get 44fps.
There seems to be reports of driver issues and DPC latency in the latest Pascal cards that are related to the utilization issues. I am just asking for a future reference, how do you generally decide that your CPU is the bottleneck? In my case, I am getting 50% CPU usage across all cores, but 60% GPU usage; could it be the speed/architecture of my CPU rather than usage?
