Will the FX-8350 bottleneck the 780 Ti?

Is this one any better? Any worse? It's got an Intel 4670k instead of a FX-8350, but a 780 instead of a 780 Ti.

The new Haswell CPU main advantage is going to be power consumption. They do offer a %10 increase in performance with a decrease of 25% power draw. The i5 is still the better performing CPU. If you take into count best bang for the buck and that games will come better optimized for more cores the FX wins out. If you go with the FX also pair it with the AMD graphics chips, you will get extra benefits from the combo and beat out the i5 and Nividia combos.

- Though, i'm pretty satisfied with my 8350, i overclocked it to 4.5 ghz and it run's perfectly fine.
And no, the 8350 won't bottleneck the 780, nor the 780 TI.

Well to speak the truth, the 4670k is faster than the 4670k at stock and the 4670k also consumes much less power which has it's advantage over the 8350. But the value for money is the fx-8350 and it would run good with a 290x.
