i5 2500k GPU Upgrade Help!

[Beastofgaming]

Currently I have a gtx 660 from evga its 2gb and i saw that the gtx 960 has 4gbs so i could have 2 screens but i still wanted to know if the 960 would bottleneck thanks
Edit: The Cpu is At 3.4ghz

Nothing will bottleneck. You are fine. Your i5-2500K can run any card w/o bottleneck. And gfx cards don't really "bottleneck" a CPU. The bottleneck term is usually reserved for the CPU. It's always best to have a CPU that still has plenty of headroom left when the gfx card is performing at its max.

yep. it should work out for you. The 960 is sufficient for 1080p gaming. When you get into x2 monitors to run a game, it might get a little fuzzy as you will have to turn the settings down. but at least you wont have to worry about a vram bottleneck.

You have plenty of room left on that cpu too considering you havent really touched the clock speed. Many people have gotten it up to 4.5 ghz. That cpu will last you quite a long time still.
