You have a 1050 Ti GPU and want to upgrade your CPU for gaming. Since you mainly play CS:GO and DOTA 2, focus on a CPU that balances performance and efficiency for those games.

If you're aiming for a 1050ti, the R3 3200G seems like a smart pick. Avoid wasting money on gear you won<|pad|> can't use. Just like @Slottr thought, it makes sense!

3200G offers better performance because the games you play don’t require such powerful hardware, and CS:GO won’t even need many cores. However, you’re paying for an iGPU that you won’t use, which makes it a pretty poor choice (unless you share your reasoning). In the end, they’re still Zen+ CPUs and don’t match Intel or Zen 2 CPUs for gaming at very high refresh rates.

Since it's a sale in our country, could your 1050Ti cause a bottleneck with the 2600x?

No, the Ryzen 3 won't cause a bottleneck with your 1050Ti.

This feels a bit unusual since the main advantage comes from the integrated Vega graphics, which you won’t need if you’re using a 1050 Ti. Consider the 2600 or even better, a 3600 so you can get more value when you eventually move up from the 1050 Ti within a year.
