I am building a PC and I plan on getting a Gtx 1660 with a 720p monitor will they be bottlenecked? I also have a amd ryzen 5 2600.
I will be upgrading my monitor in a month or so, will this build be bottlenecked.
I will be getting the 720p monitor from my dads old pc.
I will be playing and hopefully streaming games such as Fortnite, CSGO, etc.
Here is the part list some parts are already bought(Memory, SSD, Power Supply, Windows) https://ca.pcpartpicker.com/list/pJPgwh

Probably via the CPU at that resolution but it comes down to the game so I wouldn't worry about it too much as you will be upgrading the monitor in a month or so.

The only way to really figure it out is to test it.

When you do upgrade I'd get a monitor that supports Freesync as well as Displayport as you'll more then likely be able to utilize Freesync with newer Nvidia drivers. I would get a 1080P or 2560x1080P UW if your games support it.
