Overclocked i5-3570k to 4.5ghz vs Xeon 1270v2 for gaming

[adolobe]

Which one of these will be better for gaming when paired with a GTX 980ti.

I think you meant the i5-3570k. As for the question the 3570 OC would be the better choice for gaming.

 

[adolobe]

oh yea sorry I ment i5-3570k, I corrected the title

But will either solution bottleneck a GTX 980ti

No bottleneck. That i5 can hold its own pretty well in games.
