Would my computer handle a GTX 980?

Hi, just wondering if I would be bottlenecking a GTX 980 badly with a Intel 3770k 3.5GHz CPU and 16gb unbuffered 1600mHz RAM.

100% depends on the game/software.

 

but generally... why would you even think that would be a problem..

Depends on the game, but generally you won't see any bottlenecking.
