Gtx 970

[megamax124]

Hey everyone,

Im planning on buying an fx-8320 and an msi gtx 970 to go along with it

My question is though if the 8320 will bottleneck the 970.

Have a nice day

no

Yeah, but usually not too much, it depends on the game.

Do you have a small budget? Is that why you're buying an 8320?

yeah kinda

[Enderman]

yeah kinda

Well the 8320 will be the best you can get for that money.

The 970 is a really powerful GPU, so even if you get a 10% bottleneck from the CPU, your framerates will still be pretty high in games.

I think max 20fps difference as a i7 in cpu heavy games, but you´ll be fine

this is my build, the case is an aerocool strike-x xtreme (was not listed on pcpp)

i would appreciate any feedback, if there is an intel cpu and motherboard that can maybe do it better and potentially cheaper i would definately like to know
