Question Pentium G4560 bottleneck

[BigMac_97]

So I was willing to pair a GTX 1050 Ti with my Intel Pentium G4560, but later I found out that the GTX 1050 Ti and GTX 1060 3GB are both at the same price. So which gpu should I choose? My power supply can support both the cards though.
Please note that I can't pay more for a better cpu.

personally i'd go with the gtx 1060 although if you really search hard enough you can find a 1060 6gb for about 150 but i really dont see why you'd pair any graphics card with the Pentium G4560 as your processor would be bottlenecking any 10 series gpu put in there, but like i said i'd personally go with the 1060 even a 3gb version still has more processing power then a 1050 ti by about 30 - 50%

Thanks for your reply! The Pentium G4560 doesn't bottleneck GTX 1050 Ti though

It's a 2 core 4 threads CPU, in some cpu demanding games it will bottleneck the hell out of your GPU, upgrading your GPU to a 1060 will give you an advantage in GPU demanding games yeah but not that much it will still be bottlenecked.
And who said that it doesn't bottleneck with a 1050TI?

I've heard people say that Pentium G4560 and 1050 Ti are perfect pair... I heard it from a youtuber.

1050Ti is not a high-end card either, they would say that its a good pair because both of the gpu and cpu not powerful enough for modern day AAA titles.
a 1060 will be a much better improvement but you will still see a bottleneck from your CPU, again its a 2 core 4 threads CPU.
