i5-3350p bottleneck with a 7950

nicktuck90 · Mar 12, 2013

i was wondering if a 15-3350p would bottleneck with a 7950 geting a new card then down the road a new cpu but need to know if the 7950 will bottleneck the 3350p. and will a 530w power supply be enough its a raidmax one but isnt 80 plus

530w is plenty for your system, and no that processor won't bottleneck at all.

"7950 will bottleneck the 3350p" It is the other way around, a processor bottlenecks a GPU, not a GPU a processor.

Anyway, no it sure as hell will not. Your PSU is enough but I would suggest getting a more reliable unit if you can.

The psu capacity is fine but definately stay away from raidmax, they're not known for quality.

About the question though, both cpu and gpu are powerful so you shouldn't have much cpu or gpu limiting happening with current games
