Hi. I'm building a mini itx system for LAN parties and such. I have two 670's in my main machine. I was thinking about just using one of those for the machine and putting it back in my main machine when I'm not using the ITX system. I was just wondering if there would be a bottleneck or not. I'm going to do it anyway. just curious

Depends on how CPU-intensive the game is. You'll definitely have playable framerates in every game out there, but in certain situations the 670 may be working at only 50% while it waits for the maxed-out i3 to catch up. (Infrequent drops to 20-30fps in the most demanding games - where an i5 or i7 may only drop to 35-40.)

You probably will have a little bottlenecknig, but it won't really matter. The 3220 is a very capable cpu for gaming and will able to utilize the majority of the card, even more so if you are playing at a high resolution with high settings.
