Will my cpu be able to handle the r9 290 gpu... my cpu is i7-2600 3.40GHz

an i7 doesn't bottleneck anything?

No your i7 2600 is fine for a R9 290. You won't "bottleneck" at all.

The only thing you'll bottleneck is 4 Titans in Quad-SLI all overclocked playing Battlefield 4 on 3 4K monitors.
That's the only thing that will bottleneck an i7.

That's the only thing that will bottleneck an i7.

If you read the sentence again, you will hopefully notice i just said an i7 2600 won't bottleneck a single R9 290.

oh I know you said that. I'm saying that basically nothing will bottleneck an i7
