I'm going to be upgrading my GPU from my current 7850 2GB to a RX570 8GB will my 2600k Bottle kneck it at stock I recently upgraded my RAM from 8GB to 16GB I don't want to buy it if I will get a lot or average performance

if you are at 1080p I would say from no to a little depending on the game, a 2600K will slightly bottleneck a 1060, and I would think a 570 is slightly below that.

I think it will not bottleneck on 1080p, might be some bottleneck on higher resolution. But I don't your are planning to play games on more than 1080p resolution with RX570

At 1080p, that cpu will put a glass ceiling on some titles with that GPU. I wouldnt imagine too much...but overclocking it will be a good idea regardless.

As far as RAM, if you are using all of it, getting more is a good idea. 16gb is the sweet spot today really. I know a couple titles that will push my overall ram use well over 8gb.
