So I am going to buy myself a nice Xeon E3-1220 v5, for gaming, video editing, and graphic designing. I also am purchasing a Asus E3 Pro Gaming V5 motherboard that supports DDR4 memory. I am pairing this with 16GB's of ram and a EVGA GTX 960 4Gb SSC Graphics card. Will I be bottlenecked at all while gaming or no?

 

I can't speak for your setup but mine Kicks butt. Granted it's a DUAL E5-2620 v3, you would have to check benchmarks on comparable system. I'v only played Witcher on it and it is as smooth as silk across three 24" monitors.

Stick with the 6600k imo... or as Num already mentioned make a jump to a 6800k other than that it sounds like a huge waste of money for no benefit.

thats why I am buying it, it's huge waste of money. I do it for fun. Then normally I return it. Unless I like it a lot I keep it.
