Will this bottleneck?

Not sure if this is in the right section or not but it fits under multiple categories. 

 

My current sort of bedroom-homework-boring stuff rig is running an OEM Lenovo motherboard with a Pentium E5300 CPU and 4GB of RAM. I'm upgrading the GPU and PSU on my secondary gaming rig so I was thinking of moving the Radeon HD 6870 and EVGA 500B from that rig into this one, which has a 250W OEM PSU and a GeForce GT 510. Do you guys think that the Pentium will bottleneck the 6870?

 

EDIT: apparently it's so bad it's just called GeForce 510. Not even a GT.

Nah they will probably be fine. I mean you of course won't be running crysis 3 on max setting. But they are matched fairly well performance wise.
