What's my BOTTLENECK??

Oh great thanks! I will definitely what it.

 

Do you think I will have issue with the motherboard BIOS with the parts I got? Saw some posts about AMD processors, not sure.

Shouldn't. The boards and CPUs have been out for better part of a year now so pretty much anything in stock and on shelves should likely support it. You can tell quickly if the motherboard box has a sticker on it that says Ryzen 5000 series ready on it. If not, the motherboard has a BIOS flashback feature that you can flash a compatible BIOS without a compatible CPU.

oh absolutely. Here is a great video that Hardware Unboxed released just this morning regarding upwards of 30 GPUs performance at various settings and resolutions. There testing was with a 5950x, so you shouldn't be to far below what they have with the 1070ti for reference. Maybe 5-10% at most. 

 

 

Do you think with those parts upgrade, in the next year if I decide to upgrade my GTX 1070ti for something newer I will be ok? Or I will run in a CPU bottleneck again? For sure I would not get a RTX 3090 but maybe 3080 or 3080ti.

You will absolutely be just fine for several years.

Ok I will for sure have to look at videos on how to do a BIOS flashback. At least I have a laptop if I need to download anything on the side will building my computer. Will do that tomorrow.

 

Thanks for all your help!
