I'm building a new PC with a Ryzen 5 7600x and an RX 9070 XT. Due to budget constraints, I'll be using a 1080p monitor for the first 5-6 months. I'll primarily be playing single-player AAA games like Red Dead Redemption 2, Cyberpunk 2077, God of War, Ghost of Tsushima, The Last of Us parts 1 and 2, and Dying Light 2, along with some multiplayer titles like Battlefield 6 and Helldivers 2. Will I experience any bottlenecking at this resolution? Thanks in advance for your advice!

There’s no significant bottleneck here. Most likely, your CPU will handle the heavy lifting at 1080p. You could even set a custom resolution to 1440p in the AMD driver, and it’ll downscale to fit your monitor. This way, your GPU will help more with performance. Just make sure you don’t get an ‘out of bounds’ warning on your monitor, and you’re good to go! Let me know if you need more tips!
Bottlenecks won’t stop your games from running well; they mainly affect frame rates. A lot of people overthink this. Your hardware is modern, and you shouldn't face problems while enjoying your games at 1080p.
You’ll be just fine at 1080p! I’m using a 5600G with a 3060 Ti, and I can run most games at high settings, even at 1440p. Your setup is definitely capable!
You might always have some sort of bottleneck, but don't stress too much about it. Your setup should handle games at 1080p well enough.
