No, it won't cause a bottleneck for a 2080 Ti processor at 4K resolution.

Shift the focus to CPUs, motherboards, and memory systems. Clarify your query within the discussion thread so everyone understands the context.
They'll definitely face a CPU bottleneck. (They should have chosen an AMD processor instead.)
The selection looks solid overall, with no significant performance issues expected. Ryzen 3 3100 should handle the workload well.
It’s a bit different than expected. It really depends on the software. I’m sure some games can push both CPU and GPU to their limits — that’s called an ultra bottleneck. What should we do next?
Horizon Zero Dawn runs poorly on a 2080ti at 4K resolution due to the CPU's high load, making it hard to achieve maximum frames per second. It remains playable but isn't great. Updates improved performance, though they increased background processing demands. Most games rely heavily on GPU power, while some are designed for multiple cores. A 6-core or faster modern CPU would be better. The 4790K likely won’t perform well enough in terms of speed and efficiency. I used a 4790K with a GTX1070, switched to 4K, and still struggled with CPU limits. Game performance varies widely—better investment would be a more powerful setup.
well, thats the sensible take... but yeah, some games *at 4k* this combo will be hopelessly overwhelmed... you know, of course its a pretty good combo, but at *4k* ? this is a very weird limitation people impose on themselves... sure it looks ever so slightly sharper.. but at what price?? I played a ton of games in "4k"*... as long my hardware has no issues, sure why not? but as soon i see just a tiny issue I'll drop settings, especially resolution, because it's not giving me any real benefits anyway. *which means DSR, which is imo better than native because it gets rid of all the jaggies in most cases, but then i don't really have issues with that anyway, most games have pretty good AA nowadays.
