[SOLVED] GPU for Ryzen 5 2600 with little to no bottle Neck

[Yuudai]

Found out that the video card I have atm,and Radeon r7 370 would be bottle necked with the ryzen CPU I am thinking of using..Any suggestions for a not super over priced GPU?

ryzen 2600 CPU is actually a good Cpu and i don't think it would bottleneck a gpu like that . I even know people who pair r5 2600 with RTX 2060 AND similar Gpus and get no bottleneck

Really? I thought that being an older video card,it wouldn't be as good with this newer* its new to me* CPU

Isn't it the opposite, that an old CPU can bottleneck with a modern good GPU? And if you have a modern CPU and an old GPU, then you'll get the max performance out of the GPU?

i wouldnt call it a bottleneck, your gpu isnt really good at modern games so itll be a bad pair nonetheless.

a bottleneck is something that prohibits some component to stretch its legs, like a fast RTX 2080 ti paired with something like a ryzen 2200g, that would be a bottleneck.

for a fast gpu @1080p gaming you can get a 1660Ti, or just the 1660 and OC it to get a good bump in performance. tbh even RX 580 would be great at 1080p but if you can get the 1660 go for it.

but if you are gamnig @1440p you can get an RTX 2060 super/2070 super.

If you want to maximize your performance on 1080P gaming and Ensure good perfoemance for years ahead . You can also consider the 2060S
