Current system bottleneck?

Go to solution Solved by StorAxis,

You should be fine, especially if you OC your CPU slightly. You'll probably only have something to worry about if you get a high end GPU later on down the track.

I'm not really seeing much of a bottleneck.

Specs: CPU - Intel i7 8700K @ 5GHz | GPU - Gigabyte GTX 970 G1 Gaming | Motherboard - ASUS Strix Z370-G WIFI AC | RAM - XPG Gammix DDR4-3000MHz 32GB (2x16GB) | Main Drive - Samsung 850 Evo 500GB M.2 | Other Drives - 7TB/3 Drives | CPU Cooler - Corsair H100i Pro | Case - Fractal Design Define C Mini TG | Power Supply - EVGA G3 850W

Do not take life too seriously. You will never get out of it alive.

So any card under 300 USD won't be bottlenecked? I'm planning to upgrade mine when the new year comes around.

Depends man, I have a GTX 970 on one of my rigs paired with a terrible CPU (AMD 6800k) and i get pretty crazy bottlenecks... I get about 40FPS more when I throw the 970 onto my main gaming rig with a 4770k. Just make sure you do your research and you should be fine. :)
