I don't think you have to worry about bottlenecks.

The MB has a PCI-E 2.0 x16 slot. Ideally it would have been 3.0, but you'll only lose a few percentages of the graphics card's speed, no big deal.

The APU is pretty good too, a good match for the GTX 760 IMO.

Nice power supply :bounce:

You can see how your CPU (well, the CPU half of the APU, I mean) behaves in games when paired with a discrete gaming card.

It's comparable to an i3-3220 (that's a $125 Intel CPU). A good match for a $250 graphics card.
