I currently have have an Intel Pentium g3258 and am looking to upgrade to an i5 4460 but I'm wondering if it will be a big bottleneck ?? Its at a good price right now so this would be a good time to get one ... (I know there's no info on the 1070 but just looking to see what everyone would recommend)

System:

Intel Pentium g3258 anniversary
8gb 1600mhz RAM
Asus b85/e-csm motherboard
Gtx 750ti
Corsair cx 500 psu
 


i think for a 1070 if its as powerful as said there will be a bit of a bottleneck with a 4460
a 4690 or 4690k would work or even a 4590
but i think you would most likely want to get a new psu depending on how much power the 1070 uses
