Im looking to update my graphics card in my pc. At this point i have an amd fx 8370 octa-core cpu with a rx 270 gpu 16 gigs ram and 700w psu. Im looking for something that will not conflict too badly with my current build, however be better for a future update. I was eying the rx 580 but by my research it will cause bottleknecking. Im just not sure how badly.

 

If anyone on this forum can give me information on the topic, or other options that would perform better with what i have, it would be greatly appreciated. I am trying to stay toward a budget if possible but if i need to pay for quality im not fully opposed.

I wouldn't pair anything better than a 1050 Ti with that CPU.

Most likely ryzen 5, im note cotally sure but more so know im going to am4 socket if i stay with amd.

Then you should be okay with any graphics card, maybe except 2080Ti. Although anything above 1050Ti/RX 560 will bottleneck your current system.
