Bottlenecking question

[Shadowstriker]

I’m planning a high end pc build im going to get the and Ryzen 78003xD

and a nice x670E to go along with it and I of course want to get a 4090 to go along with it but I can’t quite afford it so I wanted to pull my 3060 TI that I have in my pre built and use it until I can afford a 4090 but I wasn’t sure if it was going to cause bottlenecking at all using a older gpu like that on new more powerful parts

The gpu will be the bottleneck here, but that's still a great setup until you can get the 4090. That just means that you will get better perfomance playing at lower resolution like 1080p, and at high fps

Your GPU will hold your CPU back, but that being said your GPU will be fully utalized. For gaming a CPU bottleneck is usually what brings problems with it. Your CPU can feed your GPU enough data to fully utalize it. It just means that your CPU can handle more powerfull cards.

I just don’t want to mess anything up/want to be able to play games at good graphics etc

There will always be a bottleneck somewhere. How it's designed. All we do is we shift around where this bottleneck is. 3060TI will be great for late 2010's AAA titles at max graphics. Last 4 years might be a struggle especially above 1080p. All contextual on what you plan to play and how.

there is no such thing as gpu bottleneck yet

You can't mess anything up by having a too powerful cpu, your gpu will be fully utilised, and since its a 3060ti, you will be able to play any game at good graphics. There is literally nothing you can lose from it, if you already have the gpu
