Will ryzen 1300x bottleneck 1060 6gb

[Toast]

I saw the new ryzen 3 and im wondering if it will bottleneck a gtx 1060

Probably not.

We don't know for sure because Ryzen 3 just released today.

most of the time it wont so I strongly advise against anything else then a Ryzen 1600 or 1700 if you want to go with AMD.
Espacially the X CPU from ryzen have a terrible TDP which means a non-X can be way higherOC'ed and then outperform an OC'ed X CPU.
Espacially considering the price with the cost of the MoBo its not worth it imo. At low budget Intel is still unquestionably king.

Ryzen 3 places well when overclocked, depending on what the retail price settles at it could be good'ish but I believe the 1600 is still the best bang for the $ cpu.

No.

As always it depends on the game. Some games like Arma 3 or GTA V will like Intel CPU no matter what, so you may get "bottlenecked" there.

I'm almost sure it will be perfectly fine.

7700k would be faster than a 1300x. in that sense there is a "bottleneck" as your cpu is holding you back from getting maximum fps on the 1060.

the question is then, is the bottleneck bad enough to make the games unejoyable? i don't think so. i have a 1400 and it does fine.

1400 has SMT. Some games like GTA V loves SMT/HT even if it's quadcore only.

Here, the 1400/1500X beat both Ryzen 3 and i5 non k because of SMT

This post I see to now realising today is launch day, so far benchies look good, 60ish fps in hitman and GTA

No Op it will not bottleneck
