Ryzen 7 7800X3D and RX 6950XT

[veerbaal_weer]

Hello, i was planning on building my pc sometime this month (maybe a bit later) and was wondering if a R7 7800X3D and RX 6950XT is a good combo meaning there will be no bottlenecks. I will be mainly be playing on 1440p.

 

Rest of the specs will be somewhat similair to this:

 

32GB DDR5 5600-6000 CL30

 

1TB Kingston KC3000 M.2

 

and just a b650 board or maybe x670

 

Thanks in advance and if you have a better combo for around the same price range ( I live in the netherlands) let me know!

It's fine. Depends what games you're playing whether CPU or GPU matters more.

 

6950xt is an odd choice though, unless you're getting it at a good price because the 7900xt is just a newer generation card with a bit more performance. But hey, if the savings are enough sure it works!

could probably go with a 7900xt, do you think it will be bottlenecked? On games with CPU intensive and GPU intensive, will most likely play a lot of both.

Well now that i checked the prices, 6950XT is probably the best choice since its 650 euros and the 7900XT is 810. Maybe theres a better CPU choice for the 6950XT at 1440p or a better GPU choice for the 7800X3D for my budget? For the GPU and CPU alone im looking to spend 1000-1200 euros

Probably won't have significant bottleneck comparing 6950 XT to 7900 XT, unless you're playing on 4K resolution

RX 7900 XT does performs better than RX 6950 XT, but the price difference is in around linear scale of price/performance

So if you have more budget, going to RX 7900 XT is a good choice, but if you have less budget, aiming for RX 6950 XT is also a good choice

Thanks man, i heard its almost always better to have a better CPU than GPU, but, the 7800x3d and 7900xt is a good combo, because i will be probably be getting that then.
