So im building a new PC but i want to know what GPU would be best for this CPU once i overclock it to 3.2Ghz or if i can get more on a ASUS P5Q PRO TURBO? So what would be the best GPU for this, would a HD 6970 bottleneck or would something like GTX 750(ti) be better?

Thanks in advance.

EDIT: It already has a HD 5850.

well the 270 will be better but i dont think you should go that for unless you do a system upgrade because it would be worth it to use that cpu with a card up so far ..as i said the 750 ti would be your best option or a 760 like robcrezz said ..if you get the 270x you will have to overclock the cpu to a high frequency for it to keep up and that would mean you have to think aboout a powerful cooling system .. if you have the money to get the 270 and buy a great cooling then i suggest you do a good overclock and and get a 270 or 270x

am refeering to stock performance .. stock 265 is comparable to a gtx 750 ti ..it will be close to 270 if overclocked but still the 270 will be stronger ..
