I've been scouring the Internet for a while now and can't seem to find anything. Even the existing questions listed when creating a question were all referring to compatibility which I already know.

Is there a method to show what processors will go well with what graphics card in terms of bottlenecking? I do want to play on the safe side but if it's necessary to experiment then I shall.

Here's the exemplary GPU: GTX 950
Here's the exemplary CPU: i5 5200U

What makes these compatible? Are they suitable for bottlenecking? How did you find this out?
 
Solution
It generally just takes alot of research and word of mouth to figure it out.
In your case, a mobile CPU like that is going to be inside a laptop. Generally, they wont be selling you a laptop that is "bottlenecked"

Thanks for that. Do you know any sites or things I'd have to search in order to research or is it just something small like "GPU for iX 3XX processor?"
