No, it really won't. Most games are GPU based and the CPU will easily be able to handle anything the GPU ''passes over'' to it. Don't worry and enjoy a sick GPU. :) Your CPU will be awesome for atleast a couple more years

I love StarCraft

Should be fine. Are you going to buy a 780 Ti ? If you're playing on a 1920x1080 monitor something much cheaper like an R9 280/GTX 760 will be more than capable. A 780 Ti seems very out of place in your configuration and is definitely overkill for 1080p.

 

You may be better off going for something more suitable and spending the money on other areas of your computer.

You also need to make sure your power supply meets the requirements for the 780 Ti. A good quality 550W-600W bronze rated or higher power supply should be enough
