[SOLVED] Will GTX 1650 work well with Ryzen 5 3600?

Hello,
Im going to buy ryzen 5 3600 cpu and i already have gtx 1650 gpu. I know that my gpu will bottleneck but i dont know how much will it bottleneck. Im planning to play at medium-high graphics settings. Thank you.

GPU bottlenecks are desirable. You WANT to have your GPU running at 100% while your CPU runs at 30%, that's ideal. This way you can keep background applications running and things remain snappy even if you're playing a game.
What you should be scared of are CPU bottlenecks that can cause stuttering/skipping/freezing etc because your GPU is pushing more frames than your CPU can handle causing a lot of weird problems.
r5 3600 Will be a great CPU to pair with 1650S, although the GPU is what will be your bottleneck, you can upgrade to a better GPU an year down the line and your CPU will still be good enough to not bottleneck it.
