Will the Ryzen 5 5600 bottleneck a RX 7900 GRE on a 1440p AAA gaming

[GoneGirl]

Hi, I just want to ask if the Ryzen 5 5600 bottleneck a 7900 GRE on a offline 1440p AAA gaming, fool of me pulled the trigger of RX 7900 GRE online which was at the time of purchase only$20 more than the 7800 XT at my excitement I totally forgot that I only got a Ryzen 5600 CPU, and the order went through and I can't cancel it anymore.

Should I be concern? Instead of saving $20 I'll end up spending more in upgrading my CPU if the bottleneck would be severe or noticeable enough at my intended offline 1440p AAA Games.

Thank you

Depeds on games but yes it will bottleneck.

5600 should be enough for 1440p - you might need to crank down some settings depending on the game for your 1% lows to not be too jarring.

 

However.

You're looking at it wrong.

While it might bottleneck a bit, it also means you won't be GPU-limited whenever you upgrade your CPU in the future, and thus won't need to replace the GPU.

You already bought it and can't cancel the order. No use worrying about it, but use it and enjoy the most that your CPU can deliver.

This put me to ease, thank you, you're right I have no choice but to save up for a CPU upgrade.

That being said, What CPU can you recommend if I stay on AM4? I just want my GRE won't be bottleneck, but I don't want super expensive AM4 CPU either, this is just purely for 1440p gaming, nothing else.

 

I read 5700x3D would be a perfect fit?

Are you the Redditer from a couple days ago?

 

Measure the GPU usage while gaming. If the frame rate isn't limited but you get a lot less than 95% usage, in that case a CPU upgrade would help.

Any CPU bottlenecking a 7900GRE would bottleneck a 7800XT too. 

 

Your ideal CPU upgrade would be a Ryzen 5700X3D.

Just stick with what you have for now. You don't even know how it performs yet in the games that you play. If you feel that the bottleneck is too much, just crank the details or step up to 4k.

[jaslion]

Use it and ignore the feelings of a bottleneck.

 

Simply put are you getting the fps you want? Yes great dont spend money

No? Check gpu usage. If at 95% or more great not bottleneck lower the settings a bit!

 

If you are getting low gpu usage check if the gsme can even do like 100fps+ and that it isnt a limit it has from its engine/programming. aif it really is a performancr issue from the cpu then consider upgrading.

 

 

Context im on a 3900x with a 7900gre people scream at me its bottlenecking but like I do not care at all one bit. I get the performance I want, nothings struggling and worst case oh no I only get 160fps instead of 190fps the horror!!!!

drop in a 5700x3d and done

otherwise you can enable pbo and run higher clocks

Concern to who? 
the 7900 GRE will get better FPS. It matters not that your cpu may cut off the top 10 fps, because you will get better fps. 

there is zero reason to upgrade your cpu unless YOU and only you are unsatisfied with the performance of the CPU and an upgrade is financially palatable to you. No part of the answer to that question is built upon the answer to "is my CPU bottlenecking".

CORRECT.

 

A CPU bottleneck is a perfectly fine thing and not an issue. The 5600 is a perfectly capable cpu, no issues with it
