CPU and GPU Bottleneck?

[Arcana]

Hello guys,

 

Im planning to upgrade my Graphics Card, Does my CPU can handle GTX 1050Ti? if yes i will buy one~

My current specs:

CPU: AMD A8 5600k

MOBO: MSI A58M-E33

GPU: Sapphire R7 260x 2GB GDDR5 (My Current GPU)

SSD: 60gb kingmaxx (For OS)

HDD: hitachi 500gb

CPU cooler: gammaxx 400

Cse: nzxt phantom full tower

RAM: 2x4 8gb 1333mhz and 1600mhz

PSU: Aerocool VP PRO 500 watts

Yes, you can use a 1050TI with potential bottlenecking.

I wouldn't buy it until you upgrade your pc. You likely won't see a difference with that cpu.

What bottlenecks depends on the Game + Settings.

Maybe your GPU will not be bottlenecked at all, maybe it will run at 60% only. Depends.

 

But a GTX 1050 ti is a good fit for your A8 5600k, in terms of price / performance ratio.

 

Still: If you would like 1080p gaming, 60 fps Target, and higher settings, even a GTX 1060 6gb would be perfectly fine with it.

 

Don't view CPU + GPU together too much. See them as completely seperate:

It doesn't matter if you put in a GTX 1050 or a Titan Xp, this does NOT Change the amount of fps, your CPU can deliver. 

You won't get magically higher fps with a stronger GPU - but you could transform the "additional GPU-Power" into better Image quality.

You can use 1050 ti and Medium, or get up to a GTX 1060 6gb, and have similar fps, but with high or even very High settings.

 

The question is more likely: Does your CPU deliver enough fps for YOU?
