Hello people
So basically im planning on building a pc for the first time and i have a question:
Im planning on using an intel i3 8100 cpu as i really cant spend too much. Ive also looked into gpu's and i really like the gtx 1060, but will i end up bottlnecking my system as im only using an i3? Ive decided its worth the extra money for a 1060 compared to a 1050 ti if its working to its fullest, but would i be better of with the 1050 ti if the i3 is holding the 1060 back? I intend to use it for gaming and schoolwork, so i dont really need a super powerful cpu, but i want to get the gpu working to its fullest. The 1060 would be about 40-50% of the total cost, which sounds quite high, thats why im asking this. Also would ypu have any suggestions for motherboards to use for this combo as i havent quite decided yet
If you can help its greatly appreciated (and sorry if im a bit of a noob)!
