Hey guys,

I'm planning to do an editing/notsomuchgaming PC.
My question is if the 660 would bottleneck the CPU. It's just a TEMPORALY solution and won't stay forever. This 660 has only 1,5 GB VRAM tho. It'll stay for like 6 months not longer.

It will not bottle neck the CPU. GPU's don't bottleneck CPU's per say. The CPU will do what it needs to do whether you have a graphics card installed or not. GPU's do however need CPU's to function. Your fantastic CPU will let your GTX660 run at its max performance. That CPU will let any graphics card run at it's max.
