Hello
I want buy new graphic card radeon rx 580 8gb saphire pulse
I have:
CPU i5 2500k not oc yet
RAM 8gb 1333 mhz
PSU Seasonic 650 W
MOBO Asrock p67 pro 3
I want play ultra in 1080p and with this configuration will be bottleneck ?
I saw similiar topics to mine and people said that will be ok but i am want to be sure that i dont have any problems with bottlenekc with my spec. And another question is rx 580 8gb to 1080p is worth it ? I want buy new card for longer(3-4 years)

If you want to play at 1080p ultra with 60fps you'll need to go with the rx 580 or GTX 1060 the 470 already is not able to lock a game at that and it's going to get worse as time goes by so atleast the 580 or 480 if you can still find one you don't have to get the 8gb version you can stick to the 4gb and you would be fine. I think they run less then $30 difference then the 470 atleast here in the US.

Impossible the future to predict is. Just kidding but yea that GPU should be good for awhile. Your probably going to see some dips in fps in certain games in certain areas especially with lots of npcs running amok but it should hold a decent fps count. Here is a video I found of someone with the same GPU and an ex 480.

There's always some sort of bottleneck however I doubt you'll have any issues with that setup. Overclocking that CPU at some point should help with some CPU heavy games.

*If lowering the graphics settings has no effect on frame rates, then the bottleneck is your CPU.*

ok thanks for answers. I thought a little lately and now i have another question I want buy rx 570 and i dont play multiplayer games or rts / strategy, mainly action games (slashers) currently play in nier automata on gtx 660 and it is poor quality gaming 720p that i want rx 570 to boost perfomance(1080p60 ultra or high) the question is: i5 2500k(stock) handle rx 570 better than rx 580 in this game and others similar ? I dont want to waste my money to have problems with bottlenecks also i dont play a lot for other new games. I know that gtx 1060 6gb is better for my cpu but in my country is more expensive.
