Upgrading My Graphics Card

[Azzthatch]

Hi guys,

I have got a custom build from PC specialist, the specs are as follows:

Intel i5 4570
16 GB AMD Gaming Series DDR3
Powercolor R9 270x

I am looking to upgrade the graphics card to the MSI RX 570 but want to make sure that the processor/RAM isn't going to act as a bottleneck?

Thanks in advance.

In general it should be fine. Some games may find the CPU a bottleneck to performance but they would be relatively few and far between.

I'd probably suggest either the GTX 1060 or the RX 580 if you can get them at reasonable prices, however, since both a good slice more powerful.
