Hi guys i'd like to ask if the athlon 760k will bottleneck the gtx 760?
i've seen a lot of mixed opinions and i was wondering if someone has or had this build before and if they experienced any short comings. I have a gtx 750ti and experience no bottleneck so would that mean the gtx 760 is also in reach of the athlon?

Thanks

well, the 760 should be fine, the athlon x4 760k is pretty much the best you can get for socket fm2. however, if you plan on going above the 760 later, then you will want either am3+ or go with intel. but as far as your question, the athlon x4 760k should not bottleneck the 760.
