CPU vs GPU bottlenecking

[LordScorpio]

Hi!
I'm planning to buy a zotac/evga gtx 1060 for my system. Current specs are:
i5-2400
6GB
400Watt
500GB

Will there be any bottleneck in modern games at high settings at 1080p? Will the cpu be enough to handle the gtx 1060?

bottlenecking is like putting a 1080 on a dual pentium system, your system will be fine.

Generally no bottleneck at 60fps/Hz. However games like BF1 multiplayer then yes there will be some but don't worry about it.

Yes, I will be playing at 60Hz and possibly no multiplayer. Thanks for the reply.

So you mean to say that the i5-2400 is more than enough for gtx 10xx series? But I have seen people writing all this stuff about how to choose a compatible cpu and gpu, otherwise one will bottleneck the other. People usually recommend at least 4th gen i5's for a gtx 1060...
