I'm buying the A8-3850 for my motherboard as it is the best CPU it can handle, so I was wondering. I have an Radeon 6770 lying around somewhere and I have the GTX 660 that i've been using. Which would be better for this kind of processor? And how bad would the bottleneck be with the GTX 660?
 
Solution
Well you will probably might see some bottlenecking with the 660. The 6770 would be a great deal better for the cpu but overall you probably will see the same performance out of both the cards. Just try both the cards and see what works best, it wont damage you components or anything.

Yeah i'm not very good with computers, thought I would get more out of the 6770 since it may not be bottlenecked as badly. So 660 it is then! How bad will the bottleneck be?

In reality there will only be a bottleneck if you use multimonitor, i have an R9 270 with an A6 3670k and have no bottleneck issues.
