I'm looking for a GPU upgrade before changing the CPU too. While searching for prices, I found some people talking about bottlenecking and stuff, so I decided to search more about it and eventually I've found pc-builds and gpucheck.
There I've found some numbers and informations about the best GPU to use with this APU, and there were 5 options:
GTX 1050 (2/4GB) - 600-750 BRL (160-200 USD)
RX 570 (4/8GB) - 600-850 BRL (160-225 USD)
GTX 1060 (3/6GB - 900-1200 BRL (240-320 USD)*
RX 580 (4/8GB) - 850-900 BRL (225-240 USD)
GTX 1650 (4GB) - 700-900 BRL (185-240 USD)
So with my search, I've found some people using RX 580 and GTX 1060 with the 2200G and saying "it can handle" these graphics cards, while the sites I mentioned said there is low-mid bottleneck levels. So I'm confused, can I just get one of the higher tier graphics cards on the list (RX 580, GTX 1060 or higher) or take one my APU can handle with (RX 570, GTX 1050 or lower)?
OBS: Yes, I knew about the APU + GPU limitations before buying the PC. The only reason why I bought it anyway it was because my old PC was dying already, even the HD was with his days counted.
