PLS HELP ME!! I have a little budget and only the gpu is all I can upgrade. For now I'm thinking of the gtx 1050 and the rx 460 2gb but I'm a little worried because it might bottleneck. Pls help me decide.

No you won't lose performance. There will be a bottleneck for sure. I am just saying this when you upgrade your computer you can just upgrade your CPU and the RX 470 will use it's full strength. It won't be useless. I don't know what Cdog is saying. I would upgrade your CPU to something like a 860K or go with an i3 4130. You would have to get a new motherboard though. If you don't want to spend too much time upgrading then the 1050 or 1050ti would be a good option. I am thinking about the future. Cdog is thinking about now

If you have a a8 7600 dont upgrade to an i3. Go for an i5. Old i5 like 2500 is better than newer i3. About your question there might be small bottleneck on a8 7600 + 1050. But its too small you wont even notice the difference. Buy a 470 if you plan to upgrade to i5. But if not then 1050 or rx 560 is good enough for your a8 7600
