So...im gonna buy a new gpu,ram,motherboard and cpu but i dont have the money for now for all of them so im thinking of buying the gpu(GTX 1060 3GB) first and i dont know if it will bottleneck my old cpu that i have(FX-4100 i know 🙁 )and how it will effect the fps.(My current card in my pc is a geforce GT9600 512mb)(Oh and my motherboard is a Gigabyte Technology Co., Ltd. GA-78LMT-USB3 (Socket M2)

i used to have fx 4100 2 years back and it bottleneck my GTX 760 .. not a good idea to pair these two ..

consider upgrade to 8350 ..

my current build is fx 8350 paired with gtx 1060 ... i did not test out the games yet ... but looking at benchmark online... it should work fine
