Question Possible Bottleneck

[Imlabs]

I have an i3 8100 build and a led 144hz monitor. Im planning to buy gtx 1660 ti card. Will there be no issues with that combination with the monitor etc?

i3 processors are giving a tough competition to even a lot of i5 processors, they are getting powerful, so... Bottlenecking not only happens between the cpu and the GPU but also with what type of storage you have(fast or slow or SSD or HDD) and I don't think the i3 will bottleneck the 1660ti sooo much...some little amount of bottlenecking will be visible but it's pretty normal so no need to worry about that (though I never even have touched a system like that 😩) and oh I didn't realise you asked about the monitor....but I know nothing about anything bottlenecking a monitor, games will work properly though

Well bottleneck doesn't just depend on the GPU and CPU. It also depends on what kind of games you will be playing, some of them will be using the CPU more than the GPU and some of them will do the opposite.
