Will a Pentium G860 bottleneck a GTX 650 Ti Boost?

Solution
What kind of monitor are you gaming on? 720p? 1080p?

It definitely wouldn't bottleneck 720p.
1080p maybe sometimes, but probably not by much, and maybe not at all.

What are your other specs? If you are not using an ssd, then your hdd would be a bigger bottleneck.

Wait for a great deal on an i3 or i5.

Your hard drive is your bottleneck, not your g860.

It's not an ideal cpu for gaming, but it's no slouch either. I would look at getting a ssd first, then try to upgrade to an i3 or i5 later.

A ssd would make a huge impact on your system.
