Gt 1030 and i3 550

Will gt 1030 bottleneck my i3 550? Can i play AAA games on 720p with them? (4gb ram)

I doubt you will be able to play any titles with that 1030. For one, it's not designed to handle HEAVY games. It's more eSports like (CS:GO, etc). Also, that i3 is weak, and will not be fast enough to send instructions to the CPU. You will really need to consider upgrading your computer as a whole. Not to mention, you only have 4GB of RAM when most games are requiring 8 minimum.

your i3 would be the bottleneck


upgrade to an i5/i7 compatible with your motherboard and get a rx 460 or gtx 1050


also 8gb of ram is recommended

So will this cpu&gpu bottleneck in all games or only AAA games? I can't understand sorry yes or no please

dual cores, old ones are just not enough


a 1030 is also very weak

you want at least an i5 760 ( FCLGA1156, same socket as your i3 ) with a rx 460 in current games

It's not the bottlenecking. Even if you had a better CPU, that 1030 will NOT be able to play AAA games.

Ok than i wont play AAA games But for example i think i can play far cry 4 with gt 1030. Will i'm gonna see fps drops? Thats all i want to know

 

[Herc08]

Not sure if you are able to play that with theGT 1030. You will most likely see frame drops. Again, I wouldn't recommend it.

 

[HCahit]

What do you recommend? I CAN'T change my cpu. I'll only buy a gpu.

 

[Herc08]

You may want to consider the GTX 750 Ti or GTX 1050 2GB. It's light, and should be able to handle some games, but it will probably cause a bottleneck with your CPU.

Truly, your best bet, is to wait, save, and do a full ugprade.

Gt 1030 will bottleneck with my cpu less than a 750ti right? I'll buy a 1030 thanks

 

[Herc08]

Ok, it seems this thread was pointless then. Just know, in many AAA games, it may not be playable as it wasn't designed to handle those type of games.
