How bad is the bottleneck when pairing the i7-7700 with the rx 5700 xt?

[Theminecraftaddict555]

I'm looking for a new gpu upgrade that won't cause any noticeable cpu bottlenecks esp. for newer games going to come out soon or already released (cyberpunk 2077, RDR2, outer worlds etc.). Also how much difference does an "overclocked" version of the gpu actually make? For example, like this one. I've been seeing some OC'd versions of the card at a cheap price and was just curious. 

 

Current specs if needed:

i7-7700

rx 480 msi armor OC 4gb

16gb of ddr4-2400 RAM

500W EVGA BQ PSU

Gaming at 1080p @ 75hz

What resolution and refresh rate? There could be no bottleneck, there could be a huge one.

Dumb me forgot to include that in the specs...Now its included

None at 1080p 75Hz

Honestly unless you are dealing with a really low resolution monitor with a ridiculous refresh rate, generally speaking the 7700 will not bottleneck the RX5700 XT as many title were designed with  a similar pairing in mind.

Nobody can tell you if any current CPU will or won't be bottlenecked by games that arent even out yet, so literally no idea for RDR2 & cyberpunk.

For outerworlds you should be fine though.
But there is no magical answer to your question, it always depends on the game and sometimes just lowering a single setting can fully remove an entire “bottleneck”.

 

As for OC’d cards, it rarely matters.
If you know how to overclock a GPU yourself (which really is not hard) you are looking at a performance difference of tops 5%.
Though OC cards usually come with better cooling which in turn means less noise, more OC headroom (sometimes) and most importantly cool hardware is happy hardware.

i'm optimistic on 2077 and outer worlds, but if gta5 is any indication, there might be dips below 75 for RDR2, nothing i'd swap cpus for though, it's likely more of a gpu bottleneck than cpu.
