I believe you should be just fine. I also think that you are of are of the right mind to think about your cpu holding you back. In any which case you can always overclock your CPU which by the looks appears that you may already be. Keep in mind as well that Nvidia cards require a little less on the CPU side of things.

CPU bottleneck is something you almost only have to worry about if playing games in lower resolutions, where your fast GPU might be able to render say 200 fps but your CPU can't keep up so you "only" get 150 fps (so it's not a problem anyway).

 

Once you're playing in 1080p or above it's pretty much always the GPU that's the bottleneck, except for a few rare CPU heavy games maybe.
