Hello,

 

The i3 is more likely to bottleneck the GPU.

Depends what you're doing, but probably will in a fair few games and such, yeah

[Stillchained]

Ok do you have a suggestion about what gpu to buy

Save some money on the gpu and buy a used RX 570 or RX 580. They'll perform similarly to the 1650 but for much cheaper.

 

You can use some of that saved money towards a cpu upgrade.

Ok but I tried to install a rx 580 during Christmas but it bottleneck the living shit out of my pc

That's why I said to buy a used one for cheap and upgrade your cpu with the saved money.

 

If you play games with a bottleneck it won't hurt anything.

As I said above, pretty sure your CPU and 8GB of ram are the bottleneck here

Make sure you quote people so we can see your responses

 

Just because a GPU is bottlenecked by a cou doesn't mean you should buy a worse graphics card for more money. Save money by getting a used RX 580 or RX 570, both of which are better than a 1650, then get a core i5 of some sort. The 6600 is the best bang for buck for your motherboard imo.
