Will my motherboard and processor bottleneck my new GPU?

[jaspher20]

So I have this quite outdated (i think)
Motherboard: Gigabyte GA-H61M-DS2 (rev 3.0)
Processor: intel i7-3770 @ 3.40ghz
RAM: 8gb
PSU: Core Elite 600w

and I'm planning to buy a GTX970 GPU next week, would my current PC components be enough for the GPU i'm planning to buy?

-Nope CPU won't bottleneck

-You have a 100w more than required for your GPU so that should all be fine also.

-If your motherboard has a x16 PCIE slot then your fine motherboard wise

-As long as you have 2x6pin PCIE power wires on the PSU you should be fine, nearly all PSU's have them now. Also the GTX 970's usually ship with a PCIE 6 to 8pin adapter if the card requires an 8 pin wire.

Hope this helps buddy.

i don't know how this is possible but I just discovered that my current PSU didn't even have 1 6pin PCIE power wire!! (attached pic is the 500w version though)

Sucks man. Can you recommend any good PSUs costing around $20-$30?

Thanks for the answer though, it helped a lot.

Corsair CX 500w,
I own one with a i5 4460 3.2Ghz and a GTX 970 coupled with it, powered by the Corsair CX 500w

Don't listen to what people say about it being a cheap badly made PSU, when I got the PSU it look brill well made and it has been going strong for 2 years but may upgrade soon as most PSU's fail after 3 years but some go on for many many years.
