AMD Phenom II x6 1055t + GeForce GTX 1060 ?
Is it going to bottleneck? Cause I really really want to replace this OLD AF graphic card with a gtx 1060 and i dont know if i should change the processor

most (if not all) AMD cpu's bottleneck mainly because Nvidia doesnt optimise their cards for AMD cpu's

and if i dont get a new gpu, how many fps will i get on gta v? bored to play with 30 fps 1 drop frame in 3 seconds with this pc

save some more money and buy a 300$ Intel cpu and you also need a new motherboard or just buy the card and deal with the 30-40 fps that you cpu will bottle neck out of your gpu.

Yes, I would make a new buiild entirely, that combo will probably bottleneck.

if you can't affort a whole new pc then buy a Nvidia 1050 or a AMD equivalent

yes depending on what i5 you buy ofcource if not fast enough even that will bottle neck ik think a 4 core (or 2 core with hyperthreading) running 3ghz+ should be fine

An i5-6500 and B150/H170 mobo would be good on a budget.
Optimally you could get an i5-6600k and Z170 + cooler.

i have enough coolers in my pc dw
kalfany Oct 25, 2016 @ 9:03am

cooler needs to fit ofcource different socket and all
Omega Oct 25, 2016 @ 9:04am 
a CPU should come with a stock cooler I think that will suffice

By cooler I mean CPU cooler, e.g. Hyper 212 Evo
With the i5-6500 you can just use stock cooler though.

You'll get your 60+fps if that's fine for you go ahead and get the gtx1060.

Other cpu less intensive games would fair better with respect to bottleneck.
