Hi. Im planning to buy ryzen 1600 with Asus prime b350 motherboard i already have r9 380 4gb and 8gb ram and psu 500w bronze is this setup good or should i get less powerful cpu? Because when i checked the bottleneck ckecker site it says that my GPU is too weak for this CPU and have 33% bottleneck

There's no compatibility problems unless your RAM is something other than DDR4. ??? Pairs of sticks? Matched sets?
What 500W PSU do you have?
Bottleneck isn't what you think it is. The gfx card is expected to run at 100% usage at times while gaming. The CPU, not so much. So yes, the 1600 can support a faster card, but that doesn't mean the gfx card is bottlenecking the CPU. Just that the CPU can handle faster cards. Your card is about a step above today's GTX 1050 Ti.
