Pc Gpu and Cpu combo

[Giancarlo_Flex]

I built my first pc 2 years ago and this is it.

RAM- Ripjaws 1600 2x8gb  DDR3

GPU- Msi Gtx 1060 3gb

CPU-Amd Fx-8350

MOTB- Asus M5a78l-m PLus/Usb 3 AM3+ Socket

PSU- EVGA 500 Br

Games today are dropping fps for me

 

Cyber Monday is around the corner so I want to see if I can make a new build for maybe a good price that will handle the newest games on high settings I want to know the best cpu and gpu I should be getting or equivalent.

A lot of people have been recommending a ryzen 5 with a high end gpu.

 

so would it really matter if I had a ryzen 5 with a 1070/1060 v.s a ryzen 5 with a 3080/1080ti. Would it bottleneck? And should I just try and get a ryzen 6/7 and go a tier lower for my gpu?

Really depends what you're trying to do. What FPS you're aiming for, what games, what your budget is, etc etc.

• The 1070 is old at this point, so you'd be getting it used.
• There's no such thing as Ryzen 6

the performance of thos gpus are extremely different, afaik the 3600x bottlenecks the 3080 in most tasks, but a 5600x wont

So what do you think.
Amd ryzen 5 with a 1660 super?

Amd ryzen 7 with a 1660 super?

what combo would be good for a high quality 2020 vr ready build?
