What is the most expensive card that will not bottleneck a Pentium G3220, I was thinking an R7-270 for around $150 on a $450 dollar budget. Should be plenty for 1080p? Its for a client, so I want to make some money.

you mean r9 270 right??? no such thing as r7 270 :)))))))

 

it is plenty for 1080p gaming at high settings, not ultra

You have this backwards. A GPU that will bottleneck a G3220? Something from 10 years ago. What the G3220 will bottleneck, not much. Titan Black maybe

 

Yes the 270 is plenty for 1080p, a friend's build has one and he adores it.

 

Btw, it's an R9 class card, not R7. :)

Depends on the game/application, if its a dual core game not even something like a Titan Z will bottleneck it.
