A reader picks their processor and graphics card and gets a verdict for the\nresolution they actually play at, without leaving your site.<\/p>\n\n<p><strong>It loads nothing onto your readers.<\/strong> No analytics, no advertising scripts, no cookies, no\nservice worker. The embed makes one request, for the widget itself. This was a deliberate change\nrather than a happy accident, and you can verify it in your browser's network tab.<\/p>\n\n<p><strong>Eleven languages.<\/strong> English, Spanish, Italian, Korean, French, Portuguese, German, Polish, Czech,\nGreek and Russian. The widget's labels and verdicts are translated, not machine-rendered English,\nand by default it follows your site's own language setting.<\/p>\n\n<p><strong>The hardware data stays current.<\/strong> The calculator reads a database that is updated continuously,\nso cards released after you install the plugin appear without you touching the shortcode again.<\/p>\n\n<h4>Attribution<\/h4>\n\n<p>By default the shortcode renders a small credit line <strong>underneath<\/strong> the widget, in your page's own\nHTML, linking to the calculator in the same language. That credit is the only thing we ask for in\nexchange, and it is how the tool stays free.<\/p>\n\n<p>If you do not want it, add <code>credit=\"false\"<\/code> and it will not be output. Nothing else changes.<\/p>\n\n<h4>Usage<\/h4>\n\n<p>Simplest form, which follows your site language:<\/p>\n\n<pre><code>[bottleneckpc_calculator]\n<\/code><\/pre>\n\n<p>Pre-set a specific pairing, useful inside a review or a build guide:<\/p>\n\n<pre><code>[bottleneckpc_calculator cpu=\"ryzen-7-9800x3d\" gpu=\"rtx-5070\" res=\"1440p\"]\n<\/code><\/pre>\n\n<p>Force a language, regardless of the site setting:<\/p>\n\n<pre><code>[bottleneckpc_calculator lang=\"de\"]\n<\/code><\/pre>\n\n<p>Without the credit line:<\/p>\n\n<pre><code>[bottleneckpc_calculator credit=\"false\"]\n<\/code><\/pre>\n\n<h4>Shortcode attributes<\/h4>\n\n<ul>\n<li><code>lang<\/code> - en, es, it, ko, fr, pt, de, pl, cs, el, ru. Defaults to your site language, falling back to English.<\/li>\n<li><code>cpu<\/code> - a processor slug, for example <code>ryzen-7-9800x3d<\/code>. Pre-selects it.<\/li>\n<li><code>gpu<\/code> - a graphics card slug, for example <code>rtx-5070<\/code>. Pre-selects it.<\/li>\n<li><code>res<\/code> - <code>1080p<\/code>, <code>1440p<\/code> or <code>4k<\/code>. Defaults to 1440p.<\/li>\n<li><code>width<\/code> - a pixel value or percentage. Defaults to 100%, capped at 420px so it does not stretch.<\/li>\n<li><code>height<\/code> - pixels. Defaults to 480.<\/li>\n<li><code>credit<\/code> - <code>true<\/code> or <code>false<\/code>. Defaults to true.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<p>Part slugs are the same ones used in the calculator's own URLs, so you can read one off any result\npage on bottleneckpc.com.<\/p>\n\n<!--section=faq-->\n<dl>\n<dt id=\"does%20this%20slow%20my%20site%20down%3F\"><h3>Does this slow my site down?<\/h3><\/dt>\n<dd><p>The iframe is lazy-loaded, so it is not fetched until a reader scrolls near it.
