Bottleneck percentage
In a system configuration featuring the Intel Xeon E5-2690 and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER, the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER could potentially act as a bottleneck to the Intel Xeon E5-2690 performance in the Metro 2033 with 3840 × 1600 and 1 monitor. While the Intel Xeon E5-2690 is well-equipped to manage strenuous computational tasks, the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER 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 Intel Xeon E5-2690 processing abilities is advisable.
With a screen resolution of 3840 × 1600 and 1 monitor, this configuration demonstrates a 6.9% graphics card bottleneck when performing Metro 2033.
Processor and graphic card utilizations
In a computing setup featuring the Intel Xeon E5-2690 and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER, under the context of Metro 2033 with a screen resolution of 3840 × 1600 and 1 monitor, the processor is expected to have an utilization rate of 69.9%, while the graphics card is projected to be utilized at 83.2%.
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 Intel Xeon E5-2690 might not operate at its full potential due to the constraints imposed by the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER. In such cases, the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER may struggle to swiftly process and relay data, resulting in underutilization of the Intel Xeon E5-2690. Therefore, the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER will be operating at its maximum capacity, leaving the Intel Xeon E5-2690 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 NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER 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 NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER features.
One distinct advantage of not maxing out the Intel Xeon E5-2690 is the enhanced ability to efficiently manage other background tasks. As the Intel Xeon E5-2690 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 Intel Xeon E5-2690 CPU Score with the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER 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. However, it's crucial to understand that bottlenecks can manifest in various types of tasks and applications. Below, you will find bottleneck calculations segmented into three primary categories: General Tasks, CPU Intensive Tasks, and GPU Intensive Tasks. This segmentation allows for a more nuanced understanding of how your system's components interact under different types of workloads.
General tasks bottleneck result
For general tasks that include web browsing, video streaming, office applications, and basic multitasking, the bottleneck result offers a comprehensive look at how well your CPU and GPU are balanced. If the bottleneck percentage leans heavily towards either the CPU or GPU, it might be beneficial to consider an upgrade for the more taxed component to ensure smoother system 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.
