So with the setup of an i3-4150 and an r9 280x, what would be my APPROXIMATE fps on ultra/high on intensive games such as arma 3 or bf4 or metro last light? Im probably not going to be playing those games, besides bf4, but i use those games as marks that my build must reach so im sure they can play lower/easier games at much high fps. and would the i3 bottleneck the r9 280x at all, if so, how much and keep in mind that ill be getting an i5(idk what model yet) soon after buying the i3, i just need a cpu thatll be good enough to play games at decent to high fps on intense games such as the ones i previously listed :) thanks!!
 
Solution
no bottlenecks here, except if you play bf4 multiplayer but if you play single player even when everything is maxed out expect to game on a 60 fps or more.

even a dual core g3258 would not bottleneck a gtx 970

and arma 3 has issues even on an i7 you would get terrible fps.
