What is the best cpu and gpu combination?

How is this mobo with the cpu and gpu?

  • Im thinking of upgrading my gpu sometime soon, and just wanted to check how the combination would work out since im not the smartest when it comes to this. Motherboard:[CrossFireX] GigaByte GA-970A-D3 AMD 970 Socket AM3+ ATX Mainboard w/ On/Off Charge, 7.1 Audio, GbLAN, USB3.0, SATA-III RAID, 2 Gen2 PCIe X16, 3 PCIe X1 & 2 PCI GPU: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814130737&nm_mc=AFC-C8Junction&cm_mmc=AFC-C8Junction-_-RSSDailyDeals-_-na-_-na&AID=10521304&PID=4176827&SID=18k9ugibec2wp Cpu AMD fx 8120 @ 3,1 GHz 1.) Will the gpu be "bottlenecked" ? 2.) what kind of power supply will i need? 3.)Also the GPU outperforms the gtx 580 by ~ 30% so do you think i can max most games with it? or will my cpu hold me back? i mostly play skyrim. Thank You! happy new year!

  • Answer:

    If you have an AMD FX don't you want an AMD GPU??? seems like a very high end GPU for such an average set up.
