NEED HELP Bottleneck

[Samppbo]

so i recently built an amd system with an Ryzen 3 1200 because i was dumb and didnt get the 1600x. But I'm running at the moment a saphire hd 7770 BIG OOF. But was wondering i ordered a GTX 1060 6gb so i would have a little room for cpu upgrades in the future but will my 1060 bottleneck the Ryzen 3 1200

Yeah it will. Ryzen 3 1200 is slow. I don't know how you've mistaken it for the 1600x, which is a completely different league of CPUs.. Money wise as well.. These two are completely different price ranges.. Anyways. If you get the gtx 1060, Ryzen 3 won't keep up in high fps games or CPU demanding titles. Simple as that.  Even if you overclock it. But then again, I assume you bought some cheap motherboard with it, so that probably isn't a very good idea to do. Seems like money poorly spent. If you have cash to upgrade and an option to return these parts, do so. 

 

 

Your system is fine as it stands now tho. But it's not really gaming ready, if you play 3xA or similar..

For the motherboard i have an Asus B-350 F strix

But most 3xA tittles barley crawl rn

You can still game at 60fps if that is your main goal. Otherwise sell the CPU.

im only gaming at 1080p and i honestly just want a enjoyable gaming experience

If you are going to upgrade your cpu, to ahead but if not the 1050 may be the best option. Also check if your power supply can handle the upgrade or that will be more money blown.

how many watts do i need for the 1060

Try the power supply calcutors and check your PSU's sticker to see if anything matches up
