Simple Question About Bottleneck

Nope, it shouldn't. But for safe measure you could always upgrade to i5 3570K to over-clock.

That wouldn't be much of an upgrade...

 

@OP For a single card you shouldn't have any bottleneck whatsoever.

I was wondering if wait for the new R9 280x or just take a 7950/70 right now... my processor is i5 3550, will bottleneck the R9 280x?

 

my english sucks sry

 

Nothing can bottleneck that when speaking about single GPU solutions! :)

So... If Jesus had the gold, would he buy himself out instead of waiting 3 days for the respawn?

Are you saying that there's a single GPU out there capable of bottlenecking an i5? Seriously?

No. I thought you were saying no CPU would bottleneck a single GPU. It was a misinterpretation on my part.

How does an i5 3550 ivy bridge compare to your intel dual core celeron that you paired with a hypothetical titan?...

 

 

No. I thought you were saying no CPU would bottleneck a single GPU. It was a misinterpretation on my part.

 

Fine! =)
