Question about G4560

[kaiju_wars]

So my build is about two years old now, so I'm doing some planning on upgrading my system.  I'm waiting to see what Ryzen 5 brings before I make a final decision, but, I've also been looking at the Pentium G4560.

I plan to continue using my 780, as quite frankly, it's still running great.  I was wondering would the G4560 be a bottleneck for my 780?

How will it be worth it if it bottlenecks?

I already have a bottleneck now with my 860K and 780. If my 780 is doing great now, I want to see how it can do when it can fully stretch it's legs.

not a huge bottleneck but little bit.

From the benchmarks i have seen for it the G4560 only really bottlenecks after 80-90fps or CPU demanding games. So it should hold fine. But i am curious if your are thinking of the Ryzen 5 why not go with an i5 instead of the pentium?

its only £60, but if you want a full experience get a i5.

Very little bottleneck unless you're playing modern titles.

i7 lol, the difference between a G4650 and a locked i5 id 10-30%

Depends on games.
