CPU bottlenecks are very easy to test and they do not require anything as complicated as messing around in the BIOS or testing in a more powerful computer. Test your computer in the game as you have, get a good feel for the performance or chart the FPS. Then exit and go into the Windows Power Setting and set the Maximum Processor State to 50% so that the CPU will be locked a lower clock C-State. Then test the game again, if you have moderate slow-down but the game is still playable, then you do not have a CPU bottleneck, if the FPS falls off a cliff or the game has very bad stuttering then you have a CPU bottleneck in that particular game. Remember to change the power setting back to 100% after the test. You will have to repeat this test for each game as the amount of the bottleneck will vary from one game to the next.

This is one of the best posts I have seen in a long time!!!

um there is a very simple way to test for cpu limitations without doing any nonsense. just lower the res and if performance stays the same then the cpu is the limitation. 
 
the issue for the op is not cpu related though. he simply had no clue what the heck he was doing when he turned on 4x SSAA while already at 1440p. that is roughly the same as running 5k so of course the game was running a bit slow. 

What was his issue then?

um I said what the issue was in the very next sentence...
 
and the OP has already figured that out too. 

Not in that statement, you didn't... You have sentence 1 that says "the issue for the op is not cpu related though." Then, you go on a wild tangent that says the OP doesn't have a clue what he is doing." While that could be an issue, yes, it does not define what you were meaning in sentence #1. Learn some English, and quit being a turd. No this isn't English class, but it's not who can be the biggest troll either. If you're going to give people advice, politeness goes a long way. Have a good night sir.

I was calling you out for the attitude. I can go in your profile and read your comments, and will put any money on the table 9/10 it will be a rudely put comment, calling someone out, because they didn't know and was asking for help, and because they didn't know, you comment with a double edge sword making them look like a tool. Well congratulations Trek, you're famous on the forums, that nobody cares bro what information you know of. Nobody cares if you are a knowledgeable person, but people can tell by the snap of the fingers when you're being rude. It's almost every time you comment when you're trying to give tips. It's real pathetic. Just quit.
