Asus GTX780 for Gigabyte B75M-D3H

[edwingerman]

Hey! I have a Gigabyte B75M-D3H, but I don't know if it will cause a bottleneck if I install an Asus GTX780 on it.

These are my system specs:
MOBO: Gigabyte B75M-D3H
CPU: Intel i5 3570
RAM: 16gb Kingston hyperx genesis (4x4gb)
PSU: Cooler Master Silent Pro-M 600w

I hope you can help me!
Thanks!

It probably would bottleneck the chipset, cause it kinda sucks in my opinion. And then your CPU could be an i5-4670K before you install GPU.

Yeah no. You'll be just fine. You'd be hard-pressed to find a game that would be so CPU demanding that the i5 couldn't keep up with the 780 while playing at high IQ settings. There's literally like 2-3 games out there, Rome Total War 2 is the only one I remember off the top of my head.

B75 isn't designed for gaming. It supports only a few RAM speeds, and no SLI. H77, H87, Z77, and Z87 is a lot more fit.

It doesn't matter if there's a chipset better suited for gaming. He was simply asking if his existing system would hold back performance of the GPU, and it will not. You sidestepped his question instead of answering it.
