What do you plan on using the computer for. And what games do you plan on using.

in certain scenarios it could... why 760 anyway? 

 

unless you want nvidia specific features there's better cards for the price

[nikolaizombie1]

I know there betters cards but im afraid of bottlenecking the gpu because of the cpu

and also im planing to run 1080p bf4 and dayz at between 30 and 60 fps
