Strong CPU bottleneck at 1440p
Your CPU is a major bottleneck for your GPU at 1440p. Much of your GPU's power goes unused. Prioritise a CPU upgrade for the biggest performance improvement.
Disclaimer: scores are normalised benchmark proxies, not clock speeds. Real-world bottlenecks depend on the specific game, driver version, resolution scaling, and background load. Use this as a directional guide only.
