Hi!

Well, I upgraded my motherboard to a Z170A Gaming Pro Carbon, my cpu with a i5-6600K, and 8gb of ram running at 2600mhz. Should mention that I also use the ID-Cooling Frostflow 240L liquid cooler. Been testing my new rig a few days with Watch Dogs 2, BF1 and Titanfall 2. It runs good, but just recently i monitored my CPU and GPU usage and temps with HWi in BF1, and my cpu usage was on 97-100% and almost the same in gpu usage in 1080p/ultra settings with a 144hz monitor. So you probably already know what my question is.. Is the 1070 STILL bottlenecking my cpu? The i5 is currently running at 4.1Ghz on turbo.

Oh, okey! Guess i misunderstood the whole bottleneck issue then, cause the fps is really good in Ultra settings all things considered.. Cpu temps is a steady 49-50c also. Thanks for the reply btw.

as long as your gpu is at high usage theres no bottleneck as their shouldnt be with a 6600k .
