No, it will not bottleneck in games anytime soon. Also, if that is a gaming build then I would not get that corsair liquid cooling, use the stock heatsink instead and get a better GPU for the extra money.

No. Also try and get another card if you can XFX is not that good.

I agree, there won't be any bottlenecks, but I have the exact same gpu and I haven't had any problems with it. No point in a water cooler though. If the XFX really is worse, then save some money, get a better one.

yes it will bottleneck, at high settings, high fps or any 2014 game.

 

 

go with experience, not random " no it's fine " ignorance.

 

2500k at 5.0ghz to a 3770k and I use a 4930k at work, I've tested 10 + nvidia kepler and gk110 gpus on each set up,

 

there IS a difference and it is noticable and worth going with a better processor.
