Ryzen 3 1200(GPU suggestions)

BazookaBZ

I need suggestions... I want to pair the GTX 970 with the Ryzen 1200(But much recently i had a dream that the GTX 970 was bottlenecking the Ryzen 3 1200 really badly) but i'm afraid of the outcomes. Should i just get a RX 570, 580? OR what if i want to stick what i told myself i was going to do and get a GTX 970?

The 970 effectively has 3.5gb of vram, the 570 and 580 come with 4gb/8 for that reason alone I would go with the 580. Plus it also comes with free games if you can get it new.

I was looking through the userbenches but i only see a roughly like, 5-8 FPS increase with the RX 580, what difference does it make if i buy a GTX 970 or what? Is the RX 580 more effective against the GTX 970 in terms of bottleneck?

Will i experience a more bottleneck experience if i get the GTX 970 VS the RX 580 where i can get a clean non-less bottleneck experience with the Ryzen 3 1200?

Ignore Userbenchmark, that site is crap.

Look at real benchmarks from 2018 or 2019...


SOme people say that the 970 can't hold a candle to the 580 these days.

You're worrying too much about Bottlenecks...

Tier lists for building a PC.

 

Motherboard tier list. Tier A for overclocking 5950x. Tier B for overclocking 5900x, Tier C for overclocking 5800X. Tier D for overclocking 5600X. Tier F for 4/6 core Cpus at stock. Tier E avoid.

(Also case airflow matter or if you are using Downcraft air cooler)

Spoiler

 

Gpu tier list. Rtx 3000 and RX 6000 not included since not so many reviews. Tier S for Water cooling. Tier A and B for overcloking. Tier C stock and Tier D avoid.

( You can overclock Tier C just fine, but it can get very loud, that is why it is not recommended for overclocking, same with tier D)

Spoiler

 

Psu tier List. Tier A for Rtx 3000, Vega and RX 6000. Tier B For anything else. Tier C cheap/IGPU. Tier D and E avoid.

(RTX 3000/ RX 6000 Might run just fine with higher wattage tier B unit, Rtx 3070 runs fine with tier B units)

Spoiler

 

Cpu cooler tier list. Tier 1&2 for power hungry Cpus with Overclock. Tier 3&4 for overclocking Ryzen 3,5,7 or lower power Intel Cpus. Tier 5 for overclocking low end Cpus or 4/6 core Ryzen. Tier 6&7 for stock. Tier 8&9 Ryzen stock cooler performance. Do not waste your money!

Spoiler

 

Storage tier List. Tier A for Moving files/  OS. Tier B for OS/Games. Tier C for games. Tier D budget Pcs. Tier E if on sale not the worst but not good.

(With a grain of salt, I use tier C for OS myself)

Spoiler

 

Case Tier List. Work In Progress. Most Phanteks airflow series cases already done!

Ask me anything :)
