simmons33 Honorable Nov 7, 2012 699 0 11,160 Jan 27, 2014 #3 3570K is still a very solid CPU. You shouldnt experience any bottlenecking whatsoever. Upvote 0 Downvote

maxiim Distinguished Oct 28, 2009 957 0 19,360 Jan 27, 2014 #8 Where do people get all these bottle necking ideas especially with extremely good CPUs. You could bottleneck a 3570k with 3 780tis maybe, depending on setup, but no single GPU, not even close. Upvote 0 Downvote

leeb2013 Honorable Aug 5, 2013 1,966 0 12,460 Jan 27, 2014 #11 nope, it doesn't come close to bottlenecking o/c'd 7950 crossfire, which are faster than 780 or R9, so don't worry. Upvote 0 Downvote
