Will a Intel Core i7 4790K bottleneck a GTX 1060?

[ThatBoyo]

I am thinking about buying a gtx 1060, but I'm not sure if my cpu will be good enough for it, any help?

No, no it won't bottleneck, unless you're attempting to use the 1060 for mining and game off of integrated graphics. Be sure to pick up a 6GB 1060 though.

Not at all. Its more than capable of driving that card... http://www.tomshardware.com/forum/id-3192807/ultimate-bottlenecking-guide.html

The 4790k and 1060 is a good pairing. The 4790k is capable of getting the most out of more powerful gpu's than a 1060.
