https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dmeWo7BLN9Y According to DF, 4k games are bottlenecking on the CPU via the 3090

When do they say that in the video? The CPU-limited comment at 10:28 is for 1080p / 1440p.

10:41 , so 10 more seconds. I910900k bottlenecking Hitman 2 at 4K Max

It doesn't seem like that's 4K: the text on the top-right corner clearly says 1080p or 1440p next to each framerate. The narrator also says 1080p and 1440p.

It's definitely confusing, since there's a mention of 4K elsewhere...

Sure, but that drives the point further right? Already CPU bound at 1080P

No. The CPU is the bottleneck at 1080P, but the GPU might become the bottleneck at a higher resolution.

not really. cpu bound at 4K implies cpu bound at 1080p, but the converse is not true.
