MSI R9 390 Potential Bottleneck

[GuppyFishNoob]

Hey guys im getting a MSI R9 390 8GB off a mate this week as im looking to do some PC upgrades over the coming weeks. My questions is will the 390 be bottlenecked by my 3570K (stock until i get a better cooler) and 8gb of RAM? Only doing 1080p gaming atm, want to do 1440p in the future

The R9 390 is still a fast card, but make sure you are comparing what you are paying for the speed vs a new card of the same or faster speed. The CPU will be fine as will the RAM. I have a one generation newer CPU and a bit slower video card and don't have any issues in any game.
