Bottleneck HELP PLS.

[Wakaastrophic]

Hi there, i have an i5-3570k, oc'ed at 4.0GHz, 12gb ram 1600mhz and a gtx 560ti, yes still running strong :'). I recently got a deal for a refurbished r9 270x 4gb variant and was wondering if my system would be bottlenecked or not. The bottleneck calculator seems flawed though from the testing around.

You can't avoid a Bottleneck 

There will always be some 

But the cpu won't slow down the GPU 

So no there won't be a Bottleneck

Bottleneck calculator is useless. As for your question, it's going to depend on the game and the monitor's resolution and refresh rate. For 1080p 60fps you're probably going to be fine in most games.

I'm just going to play on 720p for now until i get a decent Monitor. I'm using an old Samsung tv 60Hz. The games i play atm with the gtx 560ti, are GTAV, World WarZ, Valorant, LoL, Borderlands and pretty much everything on High-medium settings smooth. Coz someone told me that the r9 270x would be worst than the gtx 560ti, which i find a bit weird.

Aight, there's a sigh of relief thank you lol. Yeah, i'm not gonna ask much from this GPU, only 720p gaming or perhaps 1080p. Thank you for the help.
