Given the GPU is a RX 5500 XT 8GB and gaming at 1080p, what would be the minimum cost CPU to pair with it to avoid serious bottleneck... either CPU or GPU bottleneck? I realize conditions that cause bottleneck can vary, but opinions are welcomed. Used or new CPUs will be considered, but of course a motherboard needs to be available if CPU is bought used.
I'm building for someone who isn't ever going to upgrade and has no interest in overclocking, and has a limited budget. But has been given (won) the aforementioned graphic card. So, we're sort of building around the card. I'm not even sure whether to go Intel or Ryzen. Prices are about the same now.
