I have g3258 overclocked to 4.2 ghz and evga gtx 760 sc on ga-h81m-s1 with kingston hyperx 8gb ram. I will be using my gaming rig to play games in 1400x900 display.
Will g3258 bottleneck my gtx 760 on 900p gameplay? If yes, how much will it affect my gameplay at high settings?
Thanks in advance.

Thanks. Good to know. I had looked into the following review from eurogamer regarding gtx 760 + g3258@4.5ghz
http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/digitalfoundry-2014-p...

As per the above review, g3258@4.5ghz provides bottleneck to gtx 760 in crysis 3 at 1080p as compare to that of i7 4790k with gtx 760. If it is so, then bottleneck effect should be even more worse at 900p since g3258@4.5ghz does not give enough frame information to gtx 760 for 1080p rendering.
Please correct me if I am wrong.
Can I utilize the full potential of gtx 760 for 900p gaming with g3258@4.2Ghz?

gtx 760 will perform better in 900p than 1080p more resolution less FPS.

At lower resolutions there is more CPU involved so tend to bottleneck more.
