Will it bottleneck?

[thekoolman73]

Hi, I am thinking to buy a AMD FX 4300 quad core 4.1 ghz processor with gtx 650 ti 2gb graphics card.
Are there any chances that these can bottleneck each other?

Not really, if you're doing some very intensive stuff, the 4300 might be a bottleneck in itself, same with the 650 ti, but they aren't going to bottleneck each other in any way.

I'm gonna be using it mostly for gaming.Is the processor and gfx card good for gaming individually?

No; no bottleneck.

Yes, both the processor and graphics card will do well in gaming. The 650 Ti is a little on the weaker side, but unless you want everything on ultra, it will do fine.

Are there any better graphics card than this in the same price range?

How much are you paying for the FX-4300? Normally an i3-4130 or i3-4150 aren't much more, and those perform better in most games. I had a CPU really similar to the FX-4300 in performance for a few years, and it's a bottleneck in several games compared to my GTX 660. Now, I can't say for sure that it'll bottleneck a GTX 650 TI, but there's a risk, and a haswell i3 would remove that risk if you can find one for a similar price to the FX-4300.

Fx 4300 costs 6000 rs currently... but the i3 is dual core.
fx 4300 is a quad core with 3.8 ghz clockspeed

Doesn't matter. Only people who don't know about CPUs think the number of cores or the Ghz is most important. The i3-4130 is still faster in pretty much everything than an FX-4300.

Will it be able to play all new games at ultra settings along with zotac nvidia gtx 650 ti 2gb and 8 gb ram?

There is a trade off. More cores mean that each core is weaker. So in single threaded applications, it does not perform as well as a strong dual-core like the i3. Most games are still single-threaded. However, having more cores mean that you can multi-task a lot faster and any applications supporting threading will benefit greatly from having more cores.

Maybe, if you are playing at really low resolution. The GTX 650 Ti is not a very powerful card.

It won't hold back the GTX 650 TI at all. But not ultra, no. A few games you'll have to settle for high settings to get acceptable framerates at 1080p, unless maybe if you run at 720p.

The GTX 650 TI and FX-4300/i3-4130 are all mid-range parts. They'll perform well for gaming and they're great values, but won't hit ultra in games like Watchdogs or Crysis 3.

ok so what should i go for finally?
