Does a pentium dual core e5700 bottleneck the gt 1030 2gb ddr5 card?

Can I able to play games like Hitman 2016,Rise of the tomb raider,Hellblade Senua's Sacrifice,Battlefield 4 at 1600x900 resolution?
 
Solution
The problem I see is at least a couple of those games will need a dual core with hyperthreading, for four threads, in order to run well. Lowering resolution won't solve this problem.

Some games require a lot of videocard power. Lowering the resolution can help here. For instance, I doubt anyone would want to run Rise of the Tomb Raider at higher than 720p when using a GT 1030.

So it's not really a question of bottlenecking. Bottlenecking implies the CPU can handle the game, just not as fast as the videocard will allow. In your case, your Pentium dual core can't handle those CPU demanding games no matter how powerful a card you have.

You'd need to know what kind of motherboard you have to see if maybe a CPU upgrade to something like a Core 2 Quad might be possible. It wouldn't make certain games playable, but it might help in some.
 
Solution
Your CPU is a long way under the minimum spec for most/all of those games. If they run they will be not run well. As already said lowering the resolution to 1280x720 does not make any noticeable reduction in the cpu work, only gpu so doesn't help the cpu problem..

In these videos I see this games can be playable.And they are running at ddr3.The ddr5 is much better than the ddr3.

So it is sure that I can play those games.What's your opinion?
