Im gonna start my first build, I have a 3930k, a P9X79 motherboard and a MSI GeForce GTX 670 Power Editon OC 2GB. Just wondering if there will be any sort of bottlenecking. Thanks

The only bottleneck there is the GTX 670. That system is more for a quad SLI Titan setup. Or at least dual GTX 690s.

Dude......it's an LGA 2011 setup. P79 not Z77.

You could run a 3 x GTX670 setup with no bottlenecking on a Z77 with an i5 3570K or i7 3770K. The X79 is a step above. As I said it's what you want for a 4 x Titan Sli setup or dual GTX 690s.
 


If your running the 2gb 670's in sli, there is no point getting more than 2, especiall for 1080p gaming. If you plan to run 3 monitors or have a higher res monitor than 1920x1200, then you really want to have gpu's with 3gb+vram, in that case i would not recommend getting more 2gb 670's, would be better off focusing on getting 2 x 4gb gtx 670's/680's or 2 x titans and selling your current card.
