Will an AMD 1090T bottleneck a GTX 970

It does in some poorly optimized open world games (looking at you, watch dogs).

 

I remember W_D having huge lag spikes because it was loading in data during gameplay.

Honestly, W_D should never be used in a comparison of performance, it's just so awfully optimized. Same with GTA 4.

I still run a 1055t on an older system.  It was near an i7 920 when OC'd (3.8GHz)... 6 years ago.

 

Something like this will do a good job for as cheap as possible:

$5 more and a little better:

No reason to buy the 4440 when you can get the 4460 for cheaper.

Unless you are going to verify that the H81/B85 motherboard is revised to support Haswell Refresh CPUs, it would be pretty freakin' irresponsible to recommend someone buy a 4460 with an 8-Series motherboard.

 

If you are going to ask why again... Haswell Refresh CPUs are not 100% guaranteed to work out of the box with 8-series motherboards.  ... and no you cannot update the bios without a working CPU.

And what would that be?

The risk of getting a board with a bios that doesn't work with the 4460

Yes I'm pretty sure that board has been updated for haswell refresh.  It's been a very popular board for many people.

If you want to take risks with YOUR purchases, you go right ahead.  ... but don't tell me how to recommend PC parts that MIGHT work to someone else.  Thank you.

Omg cry more please, you could at least give a person some benefit of the doubt?  There is plenty of info out there.

No, you were recommending a more expensive cpu that had a lower clockspeed without doing your research.  You are wrong.
