Will the Core i3-13100F bottleneck the RX 6750 XT?

No. At 1440p the RX 6750 XT is the limiting part, which is the normal state for a gaming PC. The Core i3-13100F has headroom to spare. This is a model estimate from performance indexes, not a measured FPS loss.

What power supply do I need for a Core i3-13100F and RX 6750 XT?

Sustained gaming load is about 471 W using the RX 6750 XT's measured draw. A 650 W unit is the safe choice.

Is this pair better at 1080p or 4K?

1080p: CPU-limited 8% (balanced). 1440p: GPU-limited 0% (balanced). 4K: GPU-limited 22% (GPU-bound (normal)).

Core i3-13100F + RX 6750 XT: bottleneck check

Evenly matched at 1440p.

CPU GPU

Neither part waits on the other at 1440p. This is as balanced as a pairing gets.

By resolution

Resolution	Limiting part	Severity	Verdict
1080p	CPU	8%	balanced
1440p	GPU	0%	balanced
4K	GPU	22%	GPU-bound (normal)

This is the classic pattern: at 1080p the Core i3-13100F is the limit (8%), while at 4K the RX 6750 XT takes over (22% GPU-limited). If you play at 1080p on a high-refresh monitor, a faster CPU is the upgrade that matters; at 1440p or 4K this pair is already well matched.

Power supply

The RX 6750 XT measured 286 W average while gaming (407 W highest 20 ms spike, TechPowerUp). With the Core i3-13100F at its maximum turbo power of 110 W and about 75 W for the rest of the system, the sustained load is about 471 W. A 650 W unit is the safe choice.
