what is our bottleneck?

Hi all,

My brother and i both have the same gpu, a zotac 4080 but I have a 5800x3d and he a 9900k. My belief was that they're not drastically different yet we're seeing vastly different fps in game. When playing mc with seus shaders I often see 40 or so % more fps than he with lower gpu usage whereas his gpu is at 100% and with lower fps.

My first thoguht was cpu bottleneck but given I'm rarely above 20% cpu usage in MC I struggle to believe thats it. Is it a chipset bottle neck? Why am I getting such better FPs than he is?

Thank you all.

Its common people buys a gpu believing they get a better gaming experience and forgot the cpu has to be able to do things to.
In many cases they get the same fps or slightly better and its just due to an old cpu.
You have the superior rig simply.
The x3d cache in a game that is cpu hammered will provide the better gaming experience also.
 
The first week I built my latest system (7600x/4080) I was getting bizarre low framerates, couldn't figure it out until I upgraded the mobo bios(it was on v1.0) and it immediately doubled in performance.

Could be a lot of things though. Maybe the 9900k actually bottlenecking that hard? I kind of doubt it though
