The term "bottleneck" is often used frequently in the hardware world and is used to describe when the component of a computer does not measure up to the rest of the set, either because it is old or does not offer adequate performance so that all settings can unleash their potential. It can be the CPU, the graphic card, the hard disk or the RAM memory.
We teach you how to check it easily with an online application
Although the most seasoned users can identify which component is causing a bottleneck in their computer, not all of us have that knowledge or are not aware that there may be a component that we could replace so that our PC works much faster. It would be useless to buy an expensive latest generation graphics card if we have a very outdated processor, we would be wasting it.
Fortunately, there is a free online application that can help us to know if our computer is suffering from a bottleneck, in addition to giving us some very useful recommendations to replace our graphics card or our CPU with other models that better fit our configuration.

How to know if our computer suffers a bottleneck with TheBottleNecker
This online application is called TheBottleNecker , which has a 'calculator' to tell us precisely the degree of 'bottleneck' that our computer has. Usually this describes it with a percentage from 0 to 100%, everything above 10% is considered an important bottleneck, according to TheBottleNecker parameters.
When we enter the calculator, we must add the model of our CPU or processor, the model of our graphics card and if we have more than one. Then our amount of RAM and our model of hard disk, which can be a traditional mechanical or SSD, it is important to add the exact one, since the calculator also takes into account the RPM speeds of the hard disk and the interface it is using, SATA, IDE, SCSI, etc (in case we have a disk of this class).
Once we click on '' Calculate '', the application will tell us the bottleneck percentage and some recommendations of which are the best components for that configuration we choose. It is really simple and didactic, although it is only in English.
I hope it will be very useful and see you next time.
