Hi everyone. I'm planning to buy gaming pc with gtx970. Is i5 4460 is good enough for this gpu? If I buy a better cpu like i5 3570k will I get a better fps? thanks in advance. sorry for my bad english

The i5 4460 will definitely do the job for you in games. It will not bottleneck the graphics card.
No game out there currently needs anything better than an i5 4460 for 1920x1080 resolution gaming.

unlesss you're overclockcing, all i5's will not bottleneck that card to any degree, a 4460 is a very nice CPU even if it is on the lower end

i5s are very powerful for gaming, so that will be plenty. Only 4 way SLI with gtx 980s could even be bottlenecked by an i5.

Yes, the i5 4460 is good enough for gtx970.
The 3570k will show slightly better framerates especially if you overclock it in certain cpu intensive games, but in real world, the difference is negligible

If you still feel like you want a better CPU, the i5 4590 is a good buy. Its only a few dollars extra and should remain on top of all gaming pc requirements for a little while longer. http://cpuboss.com/cpus/Intel-Core-i5-4590-vs-Intel-Core-i5-3570K

The only advantage of the 3570k is overclocking, but that comes at the expense of a higher power consumption.
