I was wondering what kind of performance should I expect from a GTX780 3gb 1tb hddd and 8gb ddr3 ram and a AMD fx-6300 like frame rate or bottle necking ps ill be running in 1080p single monitor Mobo is asus m5a97 r2.0

I think your processor might bottleneck your GPU. Providing you haven't actually bought the components yet, I would maybe try to spend a little more money on the CPU. Intel chips really are the better value right now.

Purchase the gtx 780, then if you can oc, the cpu. Buying a 770 is a waste, the 970 is out now.

I wouldn't worry about bottlenecks, there might be one present, but you will still get better performance with the 780 over the 770. Especially if you oc the cpu.

I would reccomend an OC, or a new cpu. The bottleneck will be less present with an oc, but here's one video I could find of a stock fx 6300 and gtx 780. Again I say I would really reccomend to oc the cpu, you can purchase a hyper 212 evo pretty cheaply, and it will help with the bottleneck. Also you can find many videos online about oc'ing the fx's. Also, in the future, when or if you upgrade that processor, you will see that gtx 780 open up a bit more. As for 4-5 frames, it will be quite a bit larger than 4-5 fps.

Maybe instead of the gtx 780, just go for the gtx 970, the msi version for great speed/cooling performance, the gtx 970 beats the gtx 780 with it's price/performance ratio and is faster and cheaper than the gtx 780.
