Soooooo, i have a QuadCore AMD A8-5600K with Radeon(tm) HD Graphics, and i plan on getting one of those graphics cards: SAPPHIRE r9 280x Vapor-x , Sapphire r9 280x or the ASUS r9 280x. So will my CPU bottleneck my GPU? Thanks for anwsering.

Oh and i have DDR3 SDRAM 8gb 1333 MHz

Yes your CPU will definitely hold back the potential of the 280x especially in games / applications that are CPU intensive. I would suggest something like a R7 260X.

Yes, that CPU will heavily bottleneck. It'll turn the 280x into like a 250X
