It would depend on: Monitor resolution Monitor refresh rate Does your monitor have FreeSync, GSync, or neither? Which games specifically? Are you going for max details, or max frames per second? Throw the word "bottleneck" (with regard to comparing a CPU to a GPU) out of your vocabulary. Reactions: vijaymotoxnew Upvote 0 Downvote
