recently bought an i5 7500 for generally a faster system to replace my old g4440. was just wondering if this config (GTX 950 + i5 7500) is really so much of a bottleneck i 1. shouldn't have upgraded my cpu first or 2. should upgrade my gpu as soon as possible. i cant seem to find someone with the same config and was just wondering if i was reaching my full potential. thank you :)

GTX950 is just creeping into mid-range 1080p gameplay. i5-7500 can certainly handle a lot more, but it is what it is.

If you have more to spend, you can start looking at GPUs. But if it is meeting your needs now, just enjoy the faster processor. Should make no graphically bound titles better at least.
