What GPU should I get for my system to minimize bottlenecking?
Asked by

Hey everyone! I recently upgraded my PC around Christmas and now I have a Ryzen 5 5600X processor, 32GB of RAM, and a B550M Pro-VDH Wi-Fi motherboard. I'm currently using an RX 580 for my graphics card. I'm looking for suggestions on a better GPU that would cause minimal bottlenecking while playing games like Farming Simulator 22/25 and Fortnite. Any recommendations?

I've got the same CPU and RAM setup as you, and I did my homework before buying the AMD RX 6700XT last year. It works wonders for 1440p gaming—I've had amazing experiences with games like RDR2 and Horizon Forbidden West, running them on Ultra at about 120 FPS. There are stronger cards out there, but honestly, with the 5600X, you'd hit a bottleneck with those.

I really like the 5070 Ti! It's a solid choice and also has 16GB of memory, so it should give you a good boost.

Just curious, are you planning on playing in 1440p or sticking with 1080p?

If you're looking for something solid, I'd suggest the 9060XT with 16GB of RAM. Also, try to avoid 8GB cards if your budget allows—you'll definitely see better performance with more memory.

You might want to consider the RX 6700XT or even the 6800XT. If you're looking at Nvidia, the RTX 3070Ti or 3080Ti are great options too, just keep your budget in mind!
