I have an FX 4300, it kinda stinks. If I get a GTX 750Ti, and oc my cpu to hell, will I get any bottlenecking?

Can you afford to buy a 750ti + a new CPU? If not, then don't even bother asking "will it bottleneck"; getting a GPU is the best you can do with your money, so do it and forget about bottlenecking.

yeah, i was gonna get the i3 6100 after i got the money

This CPU would be x times better than your current CPU. But can you get a CPU and a GPU? For a 750 Ti you don't really need a i3 6100, a older one would be fine. Another friend of mine got a Sandy Bridge (2º gen) i3 and it doesn't bottleneck his GPU anymore, I don't remember what GPU it is for sure, I think it's a HD 7750, and it's way better than my other friend's GT 640 and his i3 doesn't bottlenecks it.

Get a used second to forth gen i3 and a used 750 Ti or other GPU and you'll be better off than using the 750 Ti on a FX 4300.
