Ryzen 7 8700G + RX 6750 XT: bottleneck check
Balanced at 1440p.
Well matched at 1440p. The RX 6750 XT is the slightly busier part, by about 12%.
By resolution
| Resolution | Limiting part | Severity | Verdict |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1080p | GPU | 4% | balanced |
| 1440p | GPU | 12% | balanced |
| 4K | GPU | 32% | GPU-bound (normal) |
The RX 6750 XT is the limiting part at every resolution, which is the healthy direction, and the gap is small enough that neither part is wasted. Upgrade the GPU first when you want more frames.

Power supply
The RX 6750 XT measured 286 W average while gaming (407 W highest 20 ms spike, TechPowerUp). With the Ryzen 7 8700G at its TDP of 65 W and about 75 W for the rest of the system, the sustained load is about 426 W. A 650 W unit is the safe choice.
