Does an AMD Ryzen 5 5600 work well with an RX 9060XT 16GB?

I'm building a new PC and I've received some mixed advice about using the AMD Ryzen 5 5600 processor with an RX 9060XT 16GB graphics card. I'm concerned about whether the CPU will bottleneck the GPU and if there are any issues I should be aware of. I plan to upgrade my CPU eventually, but for now, I want to know if this combo will be okay for gaming or if I should rethink my choices.

I think you might run into some bottlenecking issues. I had a Ryzen 5 5600, and it struggled to keep up with my RX 7800XT, which really hurt my gaming experience. Upgrading to an AM5 made a world of difference for me, so don't skimp on the CPU when you're getting a powerful GPU like the RX 9060XT.

Nah, you'll be just fine with that setup! You might get better performance with an AM5 or X3D CPU later on, but the Ryzen 5 5600 can definitely handle the RX 9060XT for now. It's way better than the Ryzen 5 5500.

It really depends on your monitor resolution. If you're gaming at 1080p, you might notice some limits with the Ryzen 5 5600. But if you're at 1440p, the RX 9060XT could be the bottleneck instead. Consider what games you're playing and your settings since that will impact performance. Overall, I'd say go for it, especially if you have a 1440p monitor!
