Will a ryzen 5 2600 bottleneck a rtx 2060 card’s performance?

[Constantin]

No!

You are good.

[Toyota AE86]

Simple answer: no it won't

i would try to find a slightly used GTX 1080 or 1080ti locally before i would buy a 2060 though...more VRAM, better performance etc.

just checked the only one used gtx 1080 for sale in my country is about €100 more than a gtx 2060

well then that puts it to rest then

Have fun!

No it will not bottleneck. Ryzen 5 2600 and rtx 2060 is one of the best combination for gaming

[geo3]

What is you monitor resolution and refresh rate?

[Zeitec]

Not really if you're being reasonable. If you're using it at 1080p, dropping it down to low settings and aiming for 240hz, then sure it'll bottleneck. However anything NOT that you'll be fine.

If I will buy the RTX 2060 and a ryzen 2600 and playing at 1080p 60hz, but high or ultra settings, am I ok?

I dont think even a 2080(2080 ti probably would) would bottleneck that cpu so you are in the clear

Put it this way, I believe that as long as the CPU is capable of handling AI and possibly physics work and still keep framerate at playable (or more than that) level at 1080P or higher, why worry? Your Ryzen+ 2600 is more than adequate for all modern games now, and in the future. Look at my rigs, I have an i7 4770K  (@4ghz)+ Radeon VII and an i7 3960X (@4.1ghz) + 2x RX VEGA64's, I'm not worried about my CPU's as they are more than adequate for the games I play.

2080 definitely would at 1080p

I had an RTX 2080 Ti before replacing it with a Radeon VII, and I ran them with an i7 4770K without any issue. Sure, it bottlenecked my RTX2080 Ti then, and still bottlenecks my Radeon VII now, but as long as my CPU is capable to achieving playable framerate, I'm not worried. My one caveat is, I don't play online games, which I understand needs faster CPU's, so I can't say about online games.....but I do believe as long as you have a decent 4C/8T (at the very least) CPU, you should be okay.

4770k is probably better than R5 2600 at gaming, 2600 with 2080 will bottleneck with uncapped frame rates at 1080p. My R5 1600 at 3.85GHz can't handle a 2070 at 1080p uncapped, so I play games at 1440 or 4k. Apart from that 2600 is good with frame cap.

Yep you should be just fine. 2060 should easily handle ultra settings at 60fps*, and Ryzen 5 2600 should easily handle the frames the 2060 is able to put out at 1080p ultra.

 

*Except the odd exception that's stupid and is unoptimized like Ghost Recon Wildlands or from what I'm hearing Metro Exodus

1.. why would you switch a rtx 2080ti with much higher performance than a radeon 7 for a radeon 7? 
2. i have a ryzen5 2600x and had a friends rtx 2080 in my rig. to see if it would bottleneck at 1080p it kinda did but not as much since its not the most powerful cpu like the 9900k. 

the ryzen 2600/x can survive allot bottlenecking wise  had no problems with my evga gtx 1070 sc nor with the msi rtx 2070 gaming z.

1. Decided I didn't quite need all that power, plus I wasn't quite so convinced that RT would be widely embraced by game developers. Also, I'm a tad bit of an AMD fanboy, so as you can see, I have 3x VEGA64's as well, and a GTX1080 just so I ain't too hardcore AMD.

2. I don't believe in a 'balanced', as there's always a bottleneck here or there, be it the CPU, GPU, even RAM. IF I were play games at 1080P (even at max ingame setting), it'd be a safe bet that my 4770K would bottleneck the Radeon VII, but IF I were to push it to my native res of 3440x1440, the CPU bottleneck becomes less of a factor as I'd be pushing the RVII a little harder.  At 4K, at reasonably high setting, the GPU becomes a bottleneck as it cannot render the frames as fast as the CPU can manage AI and physics, so it becomes a bottleneck.

 

That's why I'd not bothered with a platform upgrade to, say, Ryzen/Ryzen+, although Ryzen2 looks promising, still I'm reluctant to upgrade because my CPU's are working perfectly fine, and more importantly, handling the games I play with aplomb.

i understand bottlenecks all the way though

but what i cant understand is how you want less power. even with no ray tracing the normal fps power is insane compared to anything else  

i dont like amd gpus the radeon 7 was a massive let down full of problems. i do like amd cpus i mean i have a ryzen 5 2600x. 

to me nvidia gpus will always be better. I just hope that amd can force nvidia to drop the prices. 

[yadinmere]

look i have a gtx 1080 and a ryzen 5 2600 which is pretty much the same as a rtx 2060 may be a touch better and I oc my chip to 4.2 gh on a 240 aio which was really unnecessary but it was really cheap from cooler master and it works very well these days a decent and up to date CPU very rarely bottlenecks a GPU or anything else in your system

Not unless you are specifically playing CSGO at 240hz at 1080p low.

[dgsddfgdfhgs]

bottleneck? yes , so what

do you want you cpu & gpu both at 100% at everything?

What problems? I'm a user and I don't have any problem. The real problem was that AMD released a buggy driver to reviewers, and that caused a lot of negative comments from them. When I got my card on the 9th (the 8th) of Feb, I installed the 19.2.1 Radeon VII driver only and it was flawless, now on 19.2.2 unified driver and it's been good as well. The real issue is, many come away with bad impressions after reading reviews (basically second hand knowledge/opinions). I actually use the card and can say, other than the power requirement and noise, it's a good card for 1440P (and somewhat capable for 4K in certain games) gaming.

 

Also, I don't like nVidia's 'my way or the highway' approach, with the use of their proprietary tech like Gameworks, and I do appreciate AMD's more open source approach. Besides, IF it weren't for people like me, AMD might have given up GPU and where would that land us? nVidia cards that cost way higher than even the exorbitant RTX2080 Ti, not that I can't afford it, but I don't like the idea of just one GPU maker/monpoly....Intel has yet to out their GPU's so it's up in the air for that one.

No, but the 2060 will bottleneck for sure your cpu in the next 2-5 years. For now you re good.

You're just part of the problem, along with everyone else rooting for AMD all so they can buy their Nvidia garbage cheaper. AMD has a few mid range cards that are better than Nvidia, the only place they've had a problem remaining competitive is the high end. Maybe they could compete in the high end if more people bought their cards instead of running and getting Nvidia ONLY for the name.

 

What GPU are you using right now and when did you buy it? 

 

The only Nvidia card I would buy today is a 2080 or higher. Id take an RX 570 over 1050 ti, RX 580 over 1060, Vega 56 over 1070, Vega 64 over 1070 ti and 1080.
