So im getting AMD Athlon x4 880k and want to pair it with Radeon RX 550 2gb Pulse Sapphire , i was wondering what can i except from this setup, and if anyone has a clue about fps in games like GTA 5, CS GO, Pubg maybe, latest A. Creed, Far Cry 5 and games with simillar requirments to play them on 1920x1080. So what fps should i expect on which settings?
Sorry i made it this long im just really curious and hope someone can answer me thank you a lot
 
The CPU is slightly old so CPU and the GPU isn't extremely powerful so intensive games like the ones you're playing will stress it out quite a bit, overall you'd be able to run most games if you keep it at standard 1920x1080 and Low settings in-game. I'd expect around 40-50fps, I think asking for 60+fps from games like PUBG and GTA5 with those components may be a bit harsh. TBH i'd recommend a more powerful CPU if you can, even if you spend like $50 getting a better mobo + cpu combo. A GPU is an easy upgrade so you can upgrade it later if needed.

I don't think it would bottleneck as such, it just might not be very good if you push it to medium - high settings.
 
Agreed. An 880K and 550 isn't going to allow modern games to run on high at 1080.

Here is the 550 playing FC5 at 1080 with ultra settings, and getting 24FPS avg. If you want 60FPS you are going to need to turn settings down.
 
Thank you guys, i think ill buy it, i think its enough for me, i dont have any other option, only option is this, like most ''extreme'' i can go is 880k, working rn, but i cant cover a new motherboard, ram and cpu, i have to buy many other things, my parents are not able to afford.. Have a good day :)
