Today I stumbled across this site, which allows you to see whether your CPU and GPU are well paired, for various tasks.

E.g., here’s my current set up, for “graphics intensive tasks”:

https://thebottlenecker.com/calculator/purpose/3-graphic-card-intense-tasks/10f-amd-ryzen-5-5600x/185-nvidia-geforce-rtx-3060/3840x2160

And the site tells me this for that combination:

While the AMD Ryzen 5 5600X is well-equipped to manage strenuous computational tasks, the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060 limited graphical prowess may compromise the overall system efficiency. This disparity could lead to decreased performance and less effective utilization of system resources. To rectify this imbalance, an upgrade to a more capable graphics card that complements the AMD Ryzen 5 5600X processing abilities is advisable.

Neat!

    Something is wrong with this sites claims.

    I have i99900k and a 1080ti, and it claims I will get max 48frames or something in dayz on high. I actually get 120-140 frames on high. It claims I should be on low settings to get those frames.

      Probably cos they tested f*** all. Just throwing numbers around based on generations and manufacturers
