Hi,

 

Do you guys think an FX-8150 could be bottlenecking an RX460? I know it's an old CPU (6 years old actually holy shit) but it's clocked decently high and has 4 physical cores.

 

Also according to some benchmarks the FX-8150 is often compared to the i5-3570k which i'm pretty sure shouldn't bottleneck an RX460.

 

Thoughts?

it all depends. what res are you playing at and what settings/game are you using?

13700k, 3070, 32GB@3200

Not my machine, asking for a friend. But hes playing at 1080p and mostly playing PUBG on medium atm.

 

He's constantly getting framedrops but I just recommended him to buy a legal copy of W10 and reinstall everything.

Yeah that's also what I told him but he's getting stupidly low drops, like in the 10s and 20s.

Haha, a stable 24fps and we could call it a cinematic experience.
