GTX-1070 and FX-6300 bottleneck

[mates2013]

Hello

When i instal ENB + some 2k textures i get around 20 FPS with lagging in town. I have now FX-6300, R9-280X, 16GB 1886hz. My friend is going to college so he want to sold his pc parts. He offered me his GTX-1070 for really good price. But i fear that my processor will have really bad bottleneck with GTX-1070. So i want to ask if somebody have similar CPU, RAM and GTX-1070 and can tell me if this GPU will give me atleast plus 10 FPS so it would be playable. I dont know when i will buy new CPU.

I sorry for my english but is not my native language.

You should upgrade to a ryzen if you have the gold, also that indeed will bottleneck your 1070. My 8350 is struggling with it as well.

What town, what game?

 

If it's TES, it's heavily CPU dependent.

Fallout 3-NV shouldn't be this slow ever, fix your settings.

Fallout 4 can be either CPU or GPU.

skyrim

 

Now i was looking for new CPU a found that ryzen have pretty bad performance for skyrim, fallout... (i could buy ryzen 5 1600).

 

Have somebody ryzen and 1070??

It's OK, but could be better.

 

 

 

If you're after Skyrim performance, your best bet is probably to wait for Intel 8th generation (Coffee Lake), specifically their new i3.

Expected to offer 4 cores for around $180, although they might bump the price to $190 this time.

 

Or you could get a used Haswell mobo+CPU set. Possibly a used Skylake once Coffee Lake drops and people go upgrading. Look for a set, they're likely to be cheaper than CPU+mobo separately, might include DDR3 to boot.

 

Get the GPU anyway, though.

I do not need 190 fps (but it would be amazing). I just want play at 1080p with 60fps and have not to much lagging (in town at least 30fps).

Well a 20 fps loss is a good as it comes for Ryzen cpu's, Intel is a good bet but expensive. Get a 1600 cpu its worth the septims if you are indeed going with amd. :cool:

This chart doesn't even come close to suggesting that Ryzen is not good enough for Skyrim. This is a game with a 60fps cap. The OP likely has a 60hz screen anyway (most people do) - so it's really pointless in my opinion to suggest someone wait for Coffee Lake. The OP should probably get something like the Ryzen 5 1600, or if they want more longevity, the Ryzen 7 1700. Both processors will likely provide more value in the long run than Intel CPU's in my opinion. I think the number of cores is going to be more important moving forward - rather than the speed of those individual cores. 4 cores is a bad choice in 2017 - and will be an even worse choice moving forward.

I will take the gtx 1070 and sold my old GPU, CPU, BO, RAM and some ps4 games. Than i will buy CPU (ryzen 5 1600), BO (MSI B350 PC MATE) and RAM [HyperX Predator DDR4 16GB (Kit 2x8GB) 3200MHz CL16 DIMM 1.35V].

 

PS: Thanks everybody for their opinion and advices.

 

PPS: I have 75 FPS monitor :)

Sounds good to me. I hope you enjoy the upgrade. Also, thanks for correcting me on your monitors refresh rate. :)
