Is my Ryzen 5600 bottlenecking my 3090?

Hi everybody, thanks for your really helpful replies!

Depends on the game. My 5700x was bottlenecking my 3080 in CPU-limited scenarios (lots of NPCs in Cyberpunk etc). I went from 85fps to 100fps on the in-game benchmark switching to a 9800X3D. I play at 3440x1440.

I found PresentMon in hwinfo was a big help. Monitoring frametime against GPU/CPU wait time was revealing. CPU utlisation doesn't tell you the full story.

Bidley, I'm not familiar with frametime vs wait time, and what they mean in relation to each other. Sorry! Could you expand a little, please?
