I currently have an i5-10400F and i recently upgrade my GPU from 1650 to 3060 12GB. Obviously 3060 bottlenecks my CPU and crash my game unless i use V-sync or make more adjustment.
So what CPU should i get that goes well with my GPU ? I was thinking about the I5 13600k but i’m terrible at these kind of things so i want to hear from people who knows more than me
I do more stuff other than gaming so i kinda need the CPU to be a heavy duty kind of thing.
Thanks in advance for any recommendation

    I too have a 10400f and I just got a 7800xt (think 4070-ish performance).

    You shouldn’t be bottlenecked too bad. Right now I’m looking at the 10850k. Will need a new cooler though.

    Hey there! 🚀

    Firstly, let’s tackle those crashes, bud! You don’t want those pesky interruptions when you’re in the gaming zone. 🎮💥

    I’m rockin’ a 3090 with an i5 9600k over here and it’s smooth sailing for me. 🏄 So, before diving into a CPU upgrade, maybe give that GPU a little boost? Heard the 4070’s got some serious juice – it’s giving my 3090 a run for its money! 💡💸

    But hey, in the end, it’s all about what makes your gaming heart happy! ✌️💙

      Tbh he’s better off buying an A750 or A770 rather than spending a ton on 4070 or even wait for Battlemage, it’s expected to be equivalent to 4070 and about 300$ cheaper.
