[SOLVED] Will an Intel i5-4570 bottleneck an AMD Radeon RX 580?

[Bobkwando]

Hi, I'm thinking of upgrading the graphics card on my pc built in 2014.
This is the full build.

Intel Core i5 4570 3.2GHz
MSI Z87-G41 PC Mate
Kingston DDR3 1600 CL 11 KVR16N11/8 8GB
Western Digital Caviar Blue 1TB SATA3 WD10EZEX
ADATA SP900 64GB 2.5" SSD SATA III
Asus Geforce GTX760 2GB GTX760-DC2OC-2GD5
Corsair CX650M

Could I get some advice on whether the RX 580 would fit this build? Or are there better GPUs I should consider? Would be great if I didn't have to change other parts. Thank you very much.

It’s a good combination but you need to manage expectations of what your cpu can do. Assuming 1080p a 580 can get a minimum of 60fps in all games with careful selection of game settings. However a 4570 cannot achieve a minimum of 60 FPS in all games, in some newer cpu heavy games you will see sizeable drops under 60 FPS because of the cpu regardless of gpu choice.

Should be fine. I have an i5-3570K (albeit at 4GHz) + RX480 driving a 1440p monitor.

Here's an RX570 8GB + 2 Free Games = $140 after MIR and promo code EMCTWUW23. That's only about 10-15% slower than an RX580. That price ends at the end of today.
