Wondering if an i5 3550 @3.3 stock will bottleneck a GTX 770.

And if so should I just get a GTX 760?

(My screen res is 1080p)

It shouldn't to be perfectly honest the 770 is pretty identical in performance to the GTX 680 hope that helps?!

No; that CPU won't produce any noticeable bottleneck for a single GTX 770.

It won't bottleneck the GPU, but you could run into a CPU-limited situation that might have some (probably minimal) effect on smoothness. Don't think I'd worry about it.
