I9 10900k and obviously 9900k hugely bottleneck a 3080 at 1440p
I'm planning to buy a 3090 for next gen games and intensive RTX games like Cyberpunk 2077 but last leak about 3080 worries me a lot. Seems like also an I9 10900k will hugely bottleneck an RTX 3080 in 1440p and 1080p. I play in 1440p 165Hz and i have a 9900K, so i think i can't upgrade.

2080 TI basically does the same FPS than a 3080 with Far Cry in 1440p. I think it could be CPU limited or that the GPU will not work fine at that resolution and that would be worse because i haven't enough space to buy a 4K monitor.

no point to upgrade if you have one of the best cpu for gaming... do you understand how bottlenecks work?

I don't want to upgrade CPU until DDR5 motherboards will be released next year. But i still want to get a future proof GPU for next gen games. Seems like it doesn't work at 1080p and 1440p.

The Leak on fcnd is like a who cares fcnd is heavy on IPC cpu not exactly next gen gaming.

Sotr is more of next gen to come.

You're getting all worked up for nothing, wait for official benches/ release.

You mean only Intel CPUs will get this issue?

Far Cry games only use 4 Cores - So yes, it's going to bottleneck. But it's not really a big deal since it's getting high FPS anyway.

Resolution doesn't impact bottlenecking, framerate does.
If you're getting 120 FPS, it's good enough, for games like that.

Don't worry about one old game, newer games will use more cores/threads, and will perform much better and differently. Far Cry is one of the exceptions.

Isn't Far Cry a 2019 game?

Even the latest Far Cry games use the same ♥♥♥♥♥♥ engine, which only uses 4 cores.

I see no logic in this sentence

So it's a game issue? I also see there is little difference between 2080 Super, Vanilla 2080 and 2080 TI. I don't think an Intel 10th gen would bottleneck that GPUs.

Using less core could bring one of these or more to 100 % usage easily i think.

How much difference is between an i9-9900k@5.2 and an i9-10900k ? Right zero fps. Oc your cpu and there will be no difference in games. 8 or 10 core doesnt matter at all for games.

Even if an i9-10900k can do 5.4ghz there will be only a few fps difference. With a few i mean ~5

Your CPU is fine. Stick to playing everything at 1440p and it will tax the gpu just fine.

Yes, it's the game.

I don't understand what you mean.
