is this a good combo

[BakedBeans29]

Ive started getting parts for my 1st ever build, rn i have my ryzen 7 1700 (which i snagged for a good deal for only $100) and 16gb ddr4 3000mhz ram.

 

Im most likely getting the MSI GeForce GTX 1660 supe  6gb gpu, just wondering if that is a cood gpu to go with my cpu

 

anything helps

seems good. the cpu may bottleneck the gpu a tad, so a second hand 10-series may suit it better, but it's good just like that

A 1700 isn't bottlenecking a 1660 Super
