Will this cpu bottleneck either of these?

Hi i was just wondering if my "AMD fx-6100 3.3ghz x6 core cpu" would bottleneck a Gtx 660 or Gtx 760, just want to be sure that i'm not wasting any money to get a gpu that doesn't even use all that its capable of doing.

Your fine, that CPU isn't great; but most games are heavily GPU dependent. You could drop in AMD's new Hawaii GPU if you wanted too.

Besides, you could build a new FX 8350 rig and still bottleneck vs. an i7.

But depending on your old GPU, if your getting a big boost in fps. Don't worry about it.

wdmfiber :

I'll be upgrading from a Geforce gt 640 so it would more then likely be a pretty big jump in performance.

fx6100 will bottleneck quite a bit in most games.
