Will the CPU bottleneck the GPU

[NewAndy]

Will an OC'ed AMD Ryzen R5 1600 bottleneck a GTX 1080?

no it shouldn't but we Don't know until we see the benchmarks

It'll be fine.

What about this build instead? https://pcpartpicker.com/list/mybYqk

Theoretically it will not bottleneck.

we dont know because we dont know how well the Ryzen 1600 will preform, my guess is that maybe a little to not at all. if its preforming like an I7 6700 ish it should be fine but if its bellow that then there would be bottlenecking here. you will have to wait and see.

does an i7 6700 bottleneck any single GPU available today? just curious. I don't think that it will even bottleneck a high end overclocked 1080 :-)

no but a I5 7600k will slightly bottleneck a 1070 so if its hitting closer to that there would be problems

stop making assumptions.

we have literally no idea how it will perform

 

to op, we have no idea, but if you're mostly gaming a 7700k or even a locked 7700 and mid end mobo is better than ryzen 7 for gaming, even in multithreaded titles

Please don't get educated guess and assumption mixed up.

an educated guess is based off experience and knowledge

there is no experience with an unreleased CPU, as it uses a different CCX layout that we don't know the proper performance of

and nobody but AMD's engineers know how it performs

 

so you have an assumption, not an educated guess

[Brooksie359]

just look at the r7 benchmarks. that is the max performance you would be able to see out of a r5 series cpu. based on that it will give less performance than an intel processor in 1080p in some titles. at 1440p and above it begins to matter less so i would say it really depends on how much of a performance difference there is between having an 8 core compared to a 6 core on the ryzen architecture.

if i remember correctly the r5 cpus are just r7 cpus with disabled cores.

one or two per ccx

meaning that while games that utilise 1-3 cores will run fine, ones that use 4-6 will slow the hell down, look at wd2 benches for the r7 chips

well yeah but you can still know the max performance you will get out of one of the r5 chips. if they are r7 chips with cores disabled they wont be able to get higher performance than the r7 cpus.

maybe i should rephrase this so im being clear. the max the r5 cpus could possibly perform is on par with the r7 chips and that is being very optimistic.

It's a nice build, but 

1: Where is the monitor? And keyboard?

2: Please don't change the case. The vase is mostly preferance so there's a reason I chose the 460x

3: the question was if it would bottleneck or not, I'm capable of making my own build. I didn't say that I would buy that build, and I probably won't

I know the question was if it would bottleneck but why don't get a better build for the money? https://pcpartpicker.com/list/bPzcjc

If you want to give me a good build, please don't use a PSU that will explode in a few years...

And I don't want you to make a build for me (unless you buy all the parts for me), I just want you to answer the question (even though other people gave me a good answer)

 

and just to show you that I know how to build a PC: https://pcpartpicker.com/list/Mv8BWX

It has a bettter PSU, so I can have the PC in many years, better MoBo and higher RAM speed. only thing that is worse is the GPU, but I don't need a great 1080,since  I was going for a 1070 and just wanted to see what I had to sacrifice to get the 1080
