In some CPU intensive games, it is a LOT. In others like Battlefield, it isn't too much.
Go for a 1155 i5 CPU if you can afford it.

It depends on the game engine.

William Norberg :

Yes. Great CPUs.

possibly... i mean something typically is bottlenecking something in a computer. So it's not beyond comprehension your gpu is being bottlenecked by your cpu. what makes you think you're being bottlenecked? what are you playing?

arma 3, dayZ, minecraft, The forest, Bf4, (gtaV when it releases), spiral knights, game dev tycoon, simcity, Watch_Dogs, medal of honor tier 1, pokemon, arma 2.

Yep. A new CPU will benefit you greatly.

William Norberg :

yeah... almost every single one of those titles is cpu limited... getting yourself a real unlocked quad core (like a i5-4670k) and giving yourself a bit of an overclock will really give you a boost in all of those titles.
