Will a GTX 1060 Bottleneck with a i7-2600 (non K)

Currently my R9 270x ain't cutting it and want to upgrade. Will a 1060 bottleneck my CPU?

 

Current Specs:

i7-2600 (Non k)

ASUS R9 270x 2Gb

8gb of RAM (Don't know the brand)

asus p8b75-m motherboard

If it does, it won't be noticeable. i7's age well.

Aerocool DS are the best fans you've never tried.

I still have an i7-920. Had a bad PSU not jacked up the motherboard, it would still be in use instead of on a shelf waiting for X58 mobos to stop being irrationally expensive.
