So i recently decides to upgrade my old so called gaming pc, it has a GTX 950 2gb windforce from gigabyte matched with an AMD fx6300 and one 8gb ddr3 stick. I bought the latest Ryzen 5 2600 and 16gb ddr4 ram. Will my gpu bottleneck the new Ryzen 5 2600?
 
Solution
@1080p the 950 will be the limiting factor by a big margin. If running something like 720p then less so but the 950 will still be the limiting factor. With 2600 & 16gb RAM you have a good platform for a modern mid-high end gpu.


The 950 2GB is certainly going to be the weakest link. Upgrading to the 1050 would be a complete waste of money. 1060 6GB or better if you get a chance to upgrade.
