I'm about to get a good GPU + Watercooling system and i would like to know if my CPU would bottleneck this GPU. Thank you!


No definitely not. But as far as getting a titan, I dont think its worth it, unless your gaming at 2560x1660 or something like that. But save the 400-500 bucks. And just get a 780.

Best solution

No it won't. But you can also wait for the 8000 series, rumor is they're coming out this sept to oct. If I were in your place, I'd wait for the 8000 series since it's very close. And rumor has it that NVIDIA won't release any more card this year. It will also come with lots of free games.

It's for 3D gaming, should i still get a 780?
Though im thinking of waiting for the 8 series


Yeah for 3D gaming I would agree^ I didnt realize it was for 3D gaming. Invest in the TITAN!!!!!! lol.

AMDs offerings aren't as good as intel right now, and the bulldozer had disproportionally poor single thread performance.


But i am planning to OC as much as it can run stable with a watercooling system; Still not enough budget for the price/quality that intel offers, trying to get a good rig spending as less as i can. Maybe i could upgrade to a 9370 if i wait a couple of months.
