Question Ryzen 3 1200 potential bottleneck

[BigMac_97]

I'm willing to build a pc with a Ryzen 3 1200 (A320 Motherboard, so no OC) and RX 570. Will I encounter severe bottleneck, or will the CPU handle the GPU just fine?

I think it will be fine. I think they are a good match.

With R5-1600 so heavily discounted (some locations have it for $99 on sale), it should be most anyone's 'go to' minimum ....whenever possible

I would also agree with going with the 1600, if you can. With games starting to take advantage of more cores/threads, you will get more life, out of the 1600. If you live near a microcenter, you can get them for $79.99 and still get $30 off the motherboard. Pure quadcore gaming's days are numbered, in my opinion.

You're welcome. and I think you could a little higher with the GPU if you wanted to.....but not a lot.

A GTX 1060 would work well....and and is quite a bit more powerful than the 570.
