Our Mission: Eliminate Guesswork in PC Building

At NewBottleneckCalculator.com, we believe that building or upgrading a PC should be exciting, not confusing. You shouldn’t have to wonder if your powerful new GPU is being held back by your CPU, or vice versa. Our mission is to provide you with the most accurate, accessible, and data-driven tool to identify performance bottlenecks before you spend your hard-earned money.


Why We Built This Calculator

Hi, we’re Alex, Sam, and the rest of the NewBottleneck team. Like you, we’re passionate PC builders, gamers, and content creators. We’ve all been there: meticulously researching components, comparing benchmarks, and finally ordering the parts, only to discover an unexpected bottleneck that keeps our system from reaching its full potential.

Frustrated by the fragmented information and overly simplistic calculators available, we decided to build a better solution. We combined our expertise in software engineering, data science, and hardware benchmarking to create a calculator that is:

  • Data-Powered: Our algorithms are continuously updated with thousands of benchmark results from trusted sources and real-world user data.
  • Context-Aware: We don’t just spit out a percentage. We provide context. Is the bottleneck minor or severe? Will it affect your specific use case (gaming, 3D rendering, streaming)?
  • User-Focused: We explain the “why” behind the result and offer actionable recommendations for components that will create a more balanced system.
