At the link below I have a PC build for my friend who mainly wants it to play Shogun2 and Rome 2. Mt question is whether the A10-5800K will Bottle Neck the GTX 660 (Or Radeon 7870)

Suggestions are welcome.

Intel i5 wont even come close to bottlenecking any current GPU so im pretty sure that a quad core wont bottle neck anything unless it's clocked very low. Quad core 3GHz+ wont bottle neck the fastest/titan GPU. Your good to go with the GTx 660/Radeon 7870...

nothing to worry about both cards wont get bottlenecked by that cpu, unless you play games at low resolutions even then you will get solid frame rates.

I have an A8 5500 APU with a 600w will it bottleneck if I get r9 280x or 270x? I play Arma 3 BF4 MOHW and Planetside 2
