Is 4,1GHz 3770k enough for 980 ti

First of all, I should probably point out that I'm very new to this, and I as recently as a week ago overclocked my 3770k 3,5GHz to 4,1GHz. I have waited for a week to post this so that I could make sure that the overclock is stable, and it seems that it is so. What I'm wondering is if a 3770k 4,1GHz quad core 8mb cache (just listing off everything because, as I said, I'm new to this), will be able to support a Gigabyte gtx 980 ti 6gb card without bottlenecking. If it is the case that it will bottleneck tremendously, please leave suggestions on what I can do to remove the risk of this.

a stock 3770k is more than enough.

 

even 3rd gen i5s are enough, probably some 2nd gen i7s too.

No bottleneck at all Thor.

K, thanks for the replies guys, I'll be doing a little more research and then I'll probably get myself a 980 ti, because this was the last part of the equation I had to resolve. Thanks mates.
