Calculation result
Bottleneck percentage
In a system configuration featuring the Intel Celeron M 360 and AMD Radeon HD 6700M, the AMD Radeon HD 6700M could potentially act as a bottleneck to the Intel Celeron M 360 performance in the General Tasks with 3840 × 2160 and 1 monitor. While the Intel Celeron M 360 is well-equipped to manage strenuous computational tasks, the AMD Radeon HD 6700M 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 Celeron M 360 processing abilities is advisable.
With a screen resolution of 3840 × 2160 and 1 monitor, this configuration demonstrates a 4.7% graphics card bottleneck when performing General Tasks.
Processor and graphic card utilizations
In a computing setup featuring the Intel Celeron M 360 and AMD Radeon HD 6700M, under the context of General Tasks with a screen resolution of 3840 × 2160 and 1 monitor, the processor is expected to have an utilization rate of 70.5%, while the graphics card is projected to be utilized at 82.9%.
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 Celeron M 360 might not operate at its full potential due to the constraints imposed by the AMD Radeon HD 6700M. In such cases, the AMD Radeon HD 6700M may struggle to swiftly process and relay data, resulting in underutilization of the Intel Celeron M 360. Therefore, the AMD Radeon HD 6700M will be operating at its maximum capacity, leaving the Intel Celeron M 360 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 6700M 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 6700M features.
One distinct advantage of not maxing out the Intel Celeron M 360 is the enhanced ability to efficiently manage other background tasks. As the Intel Celeron M 360 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 Celeron M 360 CPU Score with the AMD Radeon HD 6700M 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.
Bottleneck solutions
Replace processor
If your graphic card is causing the bottleneck but you're considering replacing your processor, reconsider this approach. Unless your processor is already on the verge of becoming outdated, upgrading it might not offer a significant performance boost, particularly in graphics-heavy tasks.
