#amd will my Cpu bottleneck my gpu

[Mande091]

i got a Amd phenom II x4 955 and a Amd radeon Hd 6570 2gb ddr3 

and i want to upgrade to a Amd r9 380 from sapphire

Will there be any bottleneck ?

If so how much Performance in % will it be ?

 

the Cpu is just stock and can be overclocked

There will be a small bottleneck, depending of application.

Nothing huge. My friend is running Phenom II X4 945 with GTX 970 lol.

Try out a few games, is your gpu doesn't reach 60% load then yes it bottlenecks it

Go high enough on Resolution/AA/AF, and U won't see under 90% GPU usage (99% of the time).

Question is :
Can your CPU handle games U want to play on this PC ?
