Will a FX 4300 @3.8 GHz Bottleneck a 270x ?

Striider · Jun 26, 2014

I'm currently looking for a new computer and i have to chose between a FX 4300 with a r9 270x or a r7 260X. I know which one runs better but i was wondering if the r9 270x bottleneck will be too big, if not then please let me know and show proof. Please don't go off if you think it wont i need to be certain.
Also i'm open to any better suggestions.
Thanks in advance ~~Striider~~

Bottlenecking is not an universal thing; Every game has different requirements. That CPU will bottleneck your PC in some games, and in others it won't.

What games you plan on playing ? BF4, in that case you will get bad performance from the cpu.

Games like Battlefield Hardline, Bioshock Infinite and newly released game like Destiny when it comes out.

Striider :

Well in that case you might see a bit of a bottleneck, but it should still be playable though. I'd get the R9 270X, games are getting more graphically intensive all the time so a more powerful GPU never hurts.

Would the games still be playable on med - high settings ?

The CPU has pretty much nothing to do with the settings, but yes, those games should be playable.
