No not really. It may just a bit, but you will still get comfortably playable fps with it. Esp overclocked.

It certainly won't hurt. Some games might need it, some won't.

I wouldn't worry too much:) 
Maybe you could do a small overclock to 4Ghz. What cooler are you using?
Also some games are more CPU dependent than others. The only game i which springs to mind which is very CPU dependent is Battlefield 4 multiplayer. I have included some CPU benchmarks for various games for you to look at. They don't have your exact cpu but you should be able to work out where yours would come in the charts:)

Your 760k should be fine.

I haven't played Battlefield 4 yet. I have it but haven't played it. I knew it was CPU heavy on multiplayer because of other peoples problems on here.
I have only just finished Assassins Creed 4 and am now playing Batman Arkham Origins.
I also have Fallout New Vegas, Dirt 3,Saints Row 4 and Far Cry 3 Blood Dragon which i haven't even started.
I was hoping to wait until AMD's Mantle is released for Battlefield 4 before i start it:)

Are you getting free games with your 270x? I never received any codes with mine so emailed the shop asking why i didn't get any when other 270x brands had free games and they sent me a code to get 4 free games:)
