Will an AMD 8350 hold back a 780 ti?

Basically the above more wondering if I need to upgrade CPU or not. I have the h100i, and have over locked it to 4.2ghz, but it's running at 15 degrees Celsius idle, 30 on load, so can go higher if needed.

It's colder then room temperature in my house. Needless to say, I'm satisfied with my h100i. And I can still put 2 more fans on it when needed.

If I understand what you're saying correctly, I'm using liquid cooling to make that possible. If it was fans it wouldn't be possible. I have fans for the radiator, but it uses (can't remember real work for it, just remember how it was described to me by a friend) the same idea as the way a fridge stays cooler than room temperature.

I'm not really sure, that's how it was described to me, guess that's wrong though. Was using real temp, core temp, and CPU-z to check my temps, they all agreed. So now I am confused.

Would it be safe to assume its around there? Maybe it's actually 20 degrees Celsius? If that's the case, I would still be fine with it.
