Bottlenecking?

[Its_MrMa]

Hi, will a 2700x bottleneck a 5600xt? I saw some videos and the average fps lost was 7 compared to a 3600 (with a 2080). I ask you that because i might need those extra cores (probably will edit videos, 99% i will stream), and there is that fancy rgb cooler.

 

Thanks in advance

It should not. The 2700x is fast enough that you can pretty much run up to a RTX 2080Ti or the 5700XT.

7 Fps lost? I don't think you'd notice that.

 

There's also a difference between a bottleneck and performance scaling. You might get worse performance with a worse CPU, but the term "bottleneck" may not apply.

You're fine, no need to worry
