Hello,recently I've had a budget increase and I've found a place with trustable prices for computer parts in Syria but there's one problem.
Very few CPUs are available,two cheapest CPUs are the i3-8100 and the i5-8600k,Now the i5-8600k would absolutely nuke my budget so I have gone with the i3-8100.
For the GPU anything under the GTX 1050ti would absolutely be a waste of money since even the GT 710 is a hundred dollars itself while the 1050ti is 200$.
So the components that I have chosen are:
i3-8100
8GB 2666MHz ram
GTX 1050ti
Would they have any massive bottlenecks?
 
Solution
I think that the i3-8100 and GTX 1050 Ti will work well together.

I think what will happen is you will most likely max out the 1050 Ti beofre you max out the CPU.

I have run 1060s and even 1070s with a processor that has similar performance of the i3-8100....so if you wanted to.....you could go with a 1060.....a 1070 might be a little stretch.

this parring is quite solid. remember to take 2x4 GB for extra speed. if you have 4 slots for ram, plan upgrade to 16 GB in future to max cpu & gpu potential. 8GB of ram is not always enough already, but its something that can be added later on.
