CPU & GPU Combination

[shakirjam96]

I want to know if this combination won't be bottlenecking

AMD AM3+ X8 FX8350 + Asus DirectCUii R9280X 3GB GDDR5

current I'm using that graphic card, but my CPU is AMD Phenom 2 X4 965 BE 3.4Ghz, so I thought that my CPU is bottelnecking my GPU, please help me, thank you

No you should not see any huge bottlenecking. There will still be some but not a huge amount and you should still run games at really decent FPS. A more powerful intel CPU such as the i5-4460 would be a better choice to future proof. But your choice will still work fine.

No bottleneck,high end cards usually have bottlenecking issues with the 8350.

The bottleneck depends on your resolution. To check, run GPU-Z while you're gaming, and look at the average GPU load. It'll tell you whether you're bottlenecking or not.

Whether that's the case or not, wait for Zen before you upgrade.
