Help with my PC

[RicardoH]

So Iam currently running a rig that has a B450 mother board, ryzen 1600 and a gtx 1070. Iam looking into buying either a 5700 XT or a 2060 super (leaning towards the 5700XT) iam wondering if I throw the 5700xt into my build will it bottle neck at all? If so should I look into a better cpu like maybe a 2600 or 3600?

A 3600 and 5700XT would be a great combo

So you think I’d need to upgrade my cpu? Or how do you think it’d run with the 1600?

It will run fine with the 1600, but it depends what you're trying to achieve. If you want to push more than 120 fps at 1080p, the 1600 can't handle it, regardless of what gpu you use. If you have a 1440p or 4k screen, and just try to push past 60 fps, then it will be fine.

For sure I mean my 1070 runs everything super well over 120 1080p or at least the games I play iam just trying to find out if there will be any bottle necking with just inserting the new card
