Bottleneck percentage
In a system configuration featuring the AMD Ryzen 5 PRO 2400G and AMD Radeon HD 7950, the AMD Radeon HD 7950 could potentially act as a bottleneck to the AMD Ryzen 5 PRO 2400G performance in the Fallout 4 with 640 × 480 and 1 monitor. While the AMD Ryzen 5 PRO 2400G is well-equipped to manage strenuous computational tasks, the AMD Radeon HD 7950 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 PRO 2400G processing abilities is advisable.
With a screen resolution of 640 × 480 and 1 monitor, this configuration demonstrates a 3.9% graphics card bottleneck when performing Fallout 4.
Processor and graphic card utilizations
In a computing setup featuring the AMD Ryzen 5 PRO 2400G and AMD Radeon HD 7950, under the context of Fallout 4 with a screen resolution of 640 × 480 and 1 monitor, the processor is expected to have an utilization rate of 72.4%, while the graphics card is projected to be utilized at 82.2%.
It's crucial to understand that these figures signify theoretical maximums based on typical CPU-to-GPU workload distribution ratios for certain tasks or gaming experiences. Achieving these high levels of utilization in real-world settings can be a challenging endeavor.

A game is considered "playable" if it can consistently run at 60 FPS on high settings. This ensures a smooth and visually appealing gaming experience free from lags or stutters.
Heatmap of bottleneck
During gameplay scenarios, your AMD Ryzen 5 PRO 2400G might not operate at its full potential due to the constraints imposed by the AMD Radeon HD 7950. In such cases, the AMD Radeon HD 7950 may struggle to swiftly process and relay data, resulting in underutilization of the AMD Ryzen 5 PRO 2400G. Therefore, the AMD Radeon HD 7950 will be operating at its maximum capacity, leaving the AMD Ryzen 5 PRO 2400G capabilities untapped.
In the hierarchy of bottlenecks, a graphics card bottleneck is often considered less severe than a processor bottleneck. When a graphics card bottleneck occurs, the AMD Radeon HD 7950 operates at its uppermost limits, thereby allowing you to extract the best performance possible from the card. This ensures that you benefit from the full scope of the AMD Radeon HD 7950 features.
One distinct advantage of not maxing out the AMD Ryzen 5 PRO 2400G is the enhanced ability to efficiently manage other background tasks. As the AMD Ryzen 5 PRO 2400G is not operating at full capacity while gaming, it can allocate computational resources to other ongoing activities like background processes or multitasking, without any performance trade-offs. This contributes to a smoother and more flexible overall system operation.
To gain a deeper understanding of these potential bottlenecks, consider referring to our heatmap. On the heatmap, the X-axis depicts the CPU Score, and the Y-axis signifies the GPU Score. This visualization can help identify the relationship between various CPUs and GPUs, giving you valuable insights into how to better balance your system.
By matching your AMD Ryzen 5 PRO 2400G CPU Score with the AMD Radeon HD 7950 GPU Score on the heatmap, you can more accurately assess how these components interact and pinpoint where bottlenecks may occur. Utilizing this heatmap analysis can guide you in making informed hardware decisions that lead to a more balanced and effective computing setup tailored to your specific needs.
General bottleneck calculations
The bottleneck calculations presented here are geared specifically towards in-game scenarios, providing valuable insights into how your hardware configuration could impact gaming performance.

Impact of Changing Screen Resolution
If your graphics card is bottlenecking the system, lowering the screen resolution will allow the card to handle data more efficiently, resulting in higher frames per second. However, it's worth noting that lower resolutions will require less data processing from the CPU, which could create a new bottleneck there.
