Calculation result

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 Atom D525 and AMD Radeon Vega 6 in the Processor Intense Tasks with 6400 × 4096 and 1 monitor, it appears that hardware compatibility has been achieved superbly, as evidenced by the calculated bottleneck percentage of 0%.

Gauge that shows 0% of bottleneck

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.

Processor and graphic card utilizations

In a computing setup featuring the Intel Atom D525 and AMD Radeon Vega 6, under the context of Processor Intense Tasks with a screen resolution of 6400 × 4096 and 1 monitor, the processor is expected to have an utilization rate of 77.4%, while the graphics card is projected to be utilized at 83.1%.

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

The heatmap serves as a graphical representation to further confirm the compatibility between the Intel Atom D525 and AMD Radeon Vega 6. On this heatmap, the x-axis corresponds to the CPU Score, and the y-axis corresponds to the GPU Score. In a perfectly balanced system such as this, the intersection point of the Intel Atom D525 and AMD Radeon Vega 6 will fall within the "no bottleneck zone."

The "no bottleneck zone" is an area on the heatmap where the hardware components are not only compatible but are also optimally matched to provide peak system performance. When the intersection of the CPU and GPU scores resides in this zone, it is a strong indicator that the system is balanced and will deliver excellent performance for Processor Intense Tasks. The presence of both the Intel Atom D525 and AMD Radeon Vega 6 in this zone confirms that neither component will hinder the performance of the other, leading to a seamless and highly efficient computing experience.

Mapping your Intel Atom D525 CPU Score against the AMD Radeon Vega 6 GPU Score can provide a comprehensive view of how these components interact and where bottlenecks are most likely to happen. Leveraging this heatmap data could guide you in making more balanced hardware selections suitable for your specific computing 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.

Impact of Changing Screen Resolution

Increasing the resolution in this scenario will only make the bottleneck worse, as the GPU will be under even more stress, leading to lower frame rates and reduced graphical quality. It won't significantly ease the load on the already underutilized processor.

Replace graphic cards

When the graphic card becomes a system bottleneck, upgrading it can provide a significant boost in performance. Opt for a card that better matches the capabilities of your processor to get a more balanced system. This will also enable you to run games and applications at higher settings, offering a vastly improved user experience.

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.

Bottleneck calculator types

Select purpose bottleneck calculator

Before selecting a bottleneck calculator, consider your primary computing tasks. For general activities like web browsing and office work, the calculator evaluates the balance between your CPU and GPU. If you focus on CPU-intensive tasks like video editing or 3D rendering, the tool will highlight processor performance. For GPU-centric tasks such as gaming or graphical rendering, it will assess the efficiency of your graphics card. Choose the appropriate calculator to accurately identify potential system bottlenecks for your specific use-case.
