What's the purpose of having a top tier cpu in PC gaming?

What's the purpose of having a top tier cpu in PC gaming?
Say I have a 2080TI, wouldn't something like a ryzen 3600 be enough without bottlenecking?

future proofing.
you buy a gpu that won't be a bottleneck to your rig for 10 years.

based retards get by on the lowest cpu they can possibly run and do it for years. there's no point to having a top tier cpu unless you to match your top tier gpu.

completely depends on the game
3600 won't provide the same degree of performance as, say, 9900KF due to a large clock speed difference (at similar IPC)

in reality, any mid-end CPU can guarantee getting over 60fps in most titles and it's the GPU that's the limiting factor

Not aware of any gpus that've been competitive that long
10 years ago we were in the 200 nvidia series

i'm still rocking a gtx 650 ti boost.
is it hitting the end of her life span? yes.
but she's been a fine ship.

if your resolution is high, then the cpu doesnt matter. only retards who buy based on benchmarks care about how epic the cpu is.

I've got a Ryzen 1200 and an RX 470. my card chugs along just fine, but my CPU constantly goes Super Saiyan PS4 when I run something made in the last 7 years.

glad to see brainlets are still falling for the MOAR COARS XDDD meme after all these years

OPEN MOUTH HOLDING SOMETHING TO MY FACE is my favorite YouTube content creator. You forgot motion effects and red/yellow signs.

This. 4 cores is enough for everyone. Now and forever.

N-No way goy stop spreading lies

I do a lot of video encoding so a strong CPU saves me weeks of time.

you buy a top tier cpu if you need it for work

future proofing is retarded, buy the best bang for your buck hardware you can get right now and sell/upgrade 3-5 years later

Name one amd processor objectively better than the top i9. Remember I said objectively aka provable by more than asspull.

intel still has a higher single core performance

But but but amd has weaker cores but more of them!

Yeah, no.

What cpu will last me the whole of next gen.

OH NO NO NO

Could have made it more challenging of a request

probably any high tier one

nice

Now apply the security patches.

Would it be worth upgrading from an R5 3600 if all I do is game and, watch youtube documentaries and shitpost here?

no

No

what do you use it for?

R7 3800XT guy here, I use mine for gaming, streaming, video rendering and drawing furry porn

they are applied. cope

You won't need another cpu for like four years at least.

Can't fool me schlomo

You will not see a benefit from browsing the web and gaming
Your money is better spent on high speed storage, gpu, ram, or monitor for a better experience

My 2600 was at 30-50% load depending on the area when I played Iceborne, what the fuck are you doing?

High framerate demands more CPU. Also poorly optimized games that rape your CPU.

my 3750 is at 100% usage even with the performance booster mod and i don't even get 60fps. what the fuck are YOU doing???

If you're looking for advice on racemixing, look no further. Someone will post it eventually.

3570* my bad

He's highly knowledgeable and interconnected and only shills during sponsored videos, in some cases (Origin PC) shitting on his regular sponsors.

Nothing else really matters desu. He probably lurks /g/.

user, you are running a 8 year old 4c/4t processor. At some point it is time to let go.

not him but my same cpu as you and my cpu usage sits in the 20%-35% range something is seriously wrong with your PC

If you're an autist and want to push every possible frame in a game, you the best cpu. Realistically, cpu technology moves so slow, there's no point. People still game on sandy bridge i5s without any issues

NOOOOOOOOOO

i don't believe you. post a pic.
