Nvidia GTX 970 and AMD A-10 7700K

Hey guys 😀


Are those two compatible with each other? Will it be having bottleneck or whatsoever because I just bought GTX 970 earlier today

Thank you in advanced guys 😀

I don't think the bottleneck would be that bad, but don't quote me on that.

Do you already have the A10 7700K?

If you havnt bought the A10 and motherboard yet, it may be better for you to look at getting an FX 8320 and AM3+ board, as it will give less of a bottleneck.

The a10 7700k will limit the gtx 970 to an extent, but will still perform well.

290x which is roughly comparable to a 970 with a 7850k @ 4.5ghz

scores 7613

Best score with a gtx 970 7184.

For comparison a 4670k with a 7970 scores 7614


Massive bottleneck.

How much does a 7970 go for nowadays? You wasted all the money you paid over that price....

You would be pretty stupid to pair up such a powerful gpu with such a weak ass bottle-necked AMD cpu.......why?? Makes 0 sense.......
The only cpu to buy today is Intel......at least you got the Nvidia side of it right....

Not really. I'm just taking precautionary measures to make sure I bought the right parts. I'd go for a 4th Gen Intel Core i5 instead.

Actually, I'm new to these kind of stuff so please forgive my stupidity 😀

Please excuse Swede69, he is clearly an Intel and Nvidia fanboy...

Nothing wrong with being new to this stuff, that's why we are here to help and point you in the right direction.
