Will my cup a6-6400k bottleneck my 750ti?

Go to solution Solved by Dabombinable,

It would probably be able to play them on their own-however you may still see some stuttering due to the way its CPU cores are designed (1 modules, 2 cores). Even when its not being used heavily.

 

Edit: Never mind, it won't do well in those games, its actually weaker than a Conroe Core 2 Duo (pre 2007), and this laptops A8 4555M.

I have a a6-6400k apu in my pc and it can run games at very low. I was thinking of buying the msi 750ti to play games like fallout , shadow of mordor and skyrim. I was wondering if my cpu will bottle neck the performance of my card?

I have 8gb of ddr3 ram btw

Probably, but it won't be terrible. Overclocking the CPU would make the bottleneck smaller.

Could I still plays those games at 60 fps at medium ?

Should be ok. You might get some dips below 60 though.

It's dual core and is 3.9ghz will still only be minor ?

It should, but the APU will be the limit in all games-even old ones. My Pentium E6500K (3GHz 45nm dual core) struggled with Skyrim and my GTX 650ti OC 2GB. And Skyrim is light in comparison to Fallout 4 and Shadows of Mordor, and played better on my old laptop despite its weak GPU (Mobility Radeon HD5650 1GB DDR3 1600) due to its Phenom II X4 N970 (2.2GHz).

Is it worth buying the 750 ti then ? It's £110

There is no point in getting a 1050ti when your limitted to a very slow single module APU. Its like me using my GTX 970 with my Pentium 4 541J or 631 (65W).

He will still realize gains going with the 1050 Ti. A bottleneck (which is what I'm assuming you're going for) doesn't magically drop the performance of a better card for nothing.

The gains will be negible. Even a GTX 750ti will be bottlenecked by the A6 6400K, and the 1050ti will not be more than a minor performance improvement due to that. The OP would be better off getting a far better APU or CPU (eg. An Athlon "4 core") to go with the 750ti than spending extra on the 1050ti.
