Bottleneck percentage
When configuring a high-performance computing setup, it's imperative to ensure that each hardware component is well-matched with its counterparts to provide seamless and optimal system performance. In the case of the Intel Pentium Extreme Edition 965 and AMD Radeon R5 340 in the Anno 2205 with 1024 × 768 and 1 monitor, it appears that hardware compatibility has been achieved superbly, as evidenced by the calculated bottleneck percentage of 0%.
To elaborate, a bottleneck occurs when one component restricts the maximum efficiency of another, leading to suboptimal performance and reduced system effectiveness. However, in this configuration, that is not a concern. Any bottleneck percentage below 5% is generally deemed insignificant, and our current bottleneck value sits at 0%, which means you can expect superior 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.
