GTX 960 bottleneck

Go to solution Solved by goldfries,

From my experience, an overclocked G3258 at 4Ghz++ wouldn't be able to keep up with a Core i3 processor. 

 

I mistakenly benched a GTX 980 Ti on a G3258, and what I got was a performance that couldn't even match a GTX 970. 

 

That aside, it goes back to what games you're playing. If it's DOTA / LOL then it won't matter whether you overclock or not.

I would not get the 960 at that pricepoint,

if you already have the g3258, then maybea  R9 380

If you are buying, maybe spread the budget out a bit and get a better cpu

Recommend what is best, not what you preffer.
