So I recently upgraded to the Amd a10-7890k without much research. Will it bottleneck with my msi gtx 1050 on CSGO? What cpu is reccomended so it wont bottleneck my gtx 1050, my motherboard only runs amd A series CPUs
 
Solution
You are fine with a 1050, but a 1060 will be a big bottleneck.

Agreed that A10 is a poor choice in general to have with dedicated GPU (you wasted $40-50 vs an 860k), but the entire FM2 platform is a poor choice as well considering the absolute best of the best, the 880k, cant quite measure up to an i3 from 2014.
