Usually it's the other way around.

People usually never worried the gpu bottlenecking the cpu.

by not worrying about it. I hate that they did a video on this...it's such a non-issue in 90% of cases, but people are freaking out about it

 

literally any consumer GPU out there will not restrict the 8700.

Still there's the 10%  Don't really think the video showed "Real" world enough, and one can never calculate different systems people may have. Many people are still using 2. - 4. gen core i3 i5 and i7's which surely can bottleneck 1000s series GPUs. But in this case, no GPU can indeed restrict a new 8700

Hi guys! 

Just registered to this forum, been watching Linus videos for over 2 months now because I'm building my first pc. I want to use it for light video editing, sound editing (since I'm a musician) and gaming. 

I came across this bottleneck video that got me thinking... 

Here is my build:

 

-AMD Ryzen 5 2600x (stock cooler for now) 

-G.skill (2X8Gb) Trident Z DDR4 3200MHz

-ASUS ROG STRIX B350-F

-Samsung 250Gb 970 Evo Nvme M.2

-Seagate Barracuda 1Tb

-NOX URANO VX750W 80+ Bronze

 

First I thought: I'm not busting the bank so I'm pairing my AMD CPU with an AMD GPU, it'd be good to get an ASUS ROG STRIX RX580 (since my motherboard is already a ROG STRIX). What graphics card should I buy for this purpose? Is the ram's speed ok in this build? I'm kinda clueless since it's my first build. Am I doing anything wrong? Would you guys recommend getting a used GPU? Need help!

Thank you guys.
