Why This Bottleneck Occurs

At 1440p resolution for gaming, the Intel Xeon W-2150B (Server) 3.00 GHz creates a significant bottleneck (67%) when paired with the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2070. The CPU cannot feed data to the GPU fast enough, meaning the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2070 is not being fully utilized. At 1440p, the workload is more balanced, but the CPU is still the limiting factor in this pairing.
