what the best or safest graphics card for amd a10 7850k without bottlenecking issue.

Budget?

it depends heavily on the task and games you play

as well as resolutions you're playing at

 

edit: also, a "bottleneck" will always occur in your system, either the cpu or gpu or something else

if there isn't one, your system would perform faster until there is one

i just want to use for Photoshop and high to ultra settings for games

what is the safest or best graphics card for my processor?

 

 

it's a big deal to have bottlenecking issue of cpu and gpu???

Bottlenecks will always exist, either due to the computational ability of some individual component, or what physics will allow.

normally, a gaming pc would have a bottlenecking gpu, since gpu are normally the weakest link

and its fine, stutters may occur if the cpu becomes the bottleneck (or other parts of the system but thats less common, its either the cpu or gpu most of the time)

 

as for what gpu fits your processor best, im not an expert for amd chips but my guess is w/e that fits your cpu cant play games at high and ultra

i'd say around an GTX 960 (somewhat like R9 380, but amd have higher cpu overhead so...)

but im not sure since im not familiar with amd APU `-` maybe wait for others to correct me

In the case of bottlenecking a GPU, you may run into problems where the CPU cannot keep up with the GPU's requests, causing less frames to be generated than what would otherwise be possible with a more powerful CPU.

I would upgrade the CPU first. Any reasonably high end card would most likely be bottlenecked by that CPU.

Sorry to hijack your thread, but I bought an asus desktop pc with an A10-7800 cpu, K30BF_M32BF_A_F_K31BF_6 motherboard, 12gb ddr3 ram, 2tb hdd, 350 watt PSU for $500 dollars on a blackfriday sale but it did not come with a graphics card, it was a good deal imo. I have read many reviews and they show that the a10-7800 is not the best cpu. I have also read that this processor is the best for my chipset.What do you think a good graphics card would be for this in the 200-250 range
