Bottlenecking concern, please help.

Hey guys, so I recently decided to build a PC. One of my friends told me the other day about bottlenecking, I am worried about any of the parts I have chosen ending up incompatible or bottlenecking, I really don't want want that to happen. I have been doing extensive research on the topic and these are the parts I have come up with. 

 

 

CPU: Intel i7 4770k 

GPU: Two 770 MSI TwinFrozer OC SLI

CPU Cooler: Corsair Liquid Cooler H100i 

MotherBoard: MSI Z87-G45 Gaming

RAM: G.SKILL Ripjaws x Series 16GB DDR3 ram - 16 GBs just to future proof

PSU: Corsair RM Series 850 Watt 80PLUS Gold-Certified Power Supply

 
 
Thanks

There's no chance that you'll bottleneck on that machine - at least nothing that you should worry about.

 

It's a solid cookie-cut rig.

No bottlenecking there. Although I would grab a 4670k and a 780 instead. More powah. Unless you NEEEEEED the i7.

It's 2:36am for me and I didn't read. My bad.

No bottlenecking here. Bottlenecks occur when you have for example a very old CPU and a modern high end GPU.

Thanks man! I'm also planning on doing a Xfire with my 290. So I am curious if 2 290's can breath in a Z87 G45. Anyways just a heads up, G45 rocks. \m/

You have nothing to worry about man, i run a similar build (in sig) and have no bottlenecks at all. Only thing different in my system is that im running two 780's and the 4770k handles it like a beast even without oc :D ive seen a 4770k handle 3 titans with a minor oc with ease so i wouldnt worry about a bottleneck in your setup

What's the difference?

 

It's just a newer chipset. There's really not a whole hell of a lot that has changed - the only real-world difference you'll see is the ability to get a slightly better overclock.

 

It basically runs into the, "Well, it's newer and costs about the same, so why not?", argument.

I don't know if they are the same or not, but the Gigabyte z87 soc force is like 300 bucks, and the z97 soc force is 209, only difference I can see is the z97 doesn't have a pre installed waterblock on the chipset. (which is a let down -_- ) But still, it oozes quality

GUI is better than Command Line Interface.
