FX-6300 bottleneck possiblity?

[NotTooBadwithHardware]

I am upgrading my rig from an EVGA SC 750 Ti to an EVGA SC 770. I have an fx-6300 (OC 4.1Ghz) that I can't upgrade to an fx-8350 just yet and I want to know how much it would bottleneck my new GPU

That wont bottleneck that GPU. You wouldn't have to worry about any kind of bottleneck unless you upgraded the GPU to a GTX 970 or better and if it was the 970 it would only be a very slight bottleneck, anything more would be a way more substantial bottleneck.

if you are just gaming and keep the 6300 you SHOULD be ok for normal stuff no crazy ultra at 1440p etc. I have a 8320 and a GTX 960 and i get pretty much 50+fps on everything. Fallout 4 is probably the one that laggs the most but honestly to me as long as it is 30+ i can play just fine.

my friend has a 630 and a gtx 660 and playing games she is fine at 1080 but if she tries to record at the same time the higher end games lag like crazy. The only high end game she tired to do was The Evil Within but ONLY when she was playing and recording.

It won't bottleneck. The 770 isn't even as fast as a 970 which runs fine on that CPU.

I wouldn't waste the money going to an 8350, you gain 2 cores that no games will ever use, otherwise they are nearly the same processor.
