[SOLVED] Rx 5700 xt with i5 9400f

[PotatoMaster0423]

I want to buy a used Rx 5700 xt from my friend, but my CPU seems to be too weak for 1080p. The problem is that I won't have money to buy a higher res monitor or a better CPU. I already decided that I will buy it no matter what. I just want someone to calm me down, and say that the bottleneck will be acceptable. The calculator showed 10.33% bottleneck, which ain't good but I don't have any other choice.

If the CPU isn't giving you the performance you actually demand, then stop worrying about it. If anything, just crank up the settings and enjoy higher image quality.

"Bottleneck calculators" are absolute garbage. Too many variables not taken into account.

Every system will have a 'bottleneck' somewhere, but whether it's noticeable or impactful is what matters.

A 9400F will pair just fine with a 5700XT at 1080p.
