I'm planning gonna get a gtx 1050 to replace my broken gtx 660. I m also gonna get a AMD 8350 processor will it bottleneck?
 
Solution
The 1050 is a 2gb budget gaming card. So it's the limiting factor in newer games at 1080p. This is not to say the 1050 is a bad buy. It will do well, in the games it was intended to play. In more demanding games you'll need to compromise in the areas of settings/framerate/resolution in order to find the best performance.

get a 1060 instead, more efficient and value for money.
 


what is your old cpu? if its a 4 core amd, just pair it with GTX 1050. It should only has slight (or no) bottleneck. If its 2 core then you need new cpu.

GTX 1050 is not a powerful card, a 4 core old amd should be able to keep up.
