Would an i5-6400 bottleneck a GTX 970 STRIX?

I am looking for a new computer in around the $1500-1700 range, and came up with this list:

Would my choice of processor bottleneck my choice of graphics card?

Thanks in advance.

No your cpu choice will not bottleneck your graphics card choice.

No there won't be a bottleneck that. 😀

No the 970 won't bottleneck that i5. 😀

You got it reversed. :lol:

How would it do in regards to livestreaming?

i7 would be better but should be decent it's an i5.

Should I go back a couple generations and do something like this?

Minus the CX PSU , looks great , get a XFX550w.

So this is good?

I'm honestly surprised I could get something this beastly into a $1700 budget.

Yes very good.

Yes very good.

If I wanted something more compact, but still a nice gaming workhorse, would this suffice?
