G Gibpls Reputable Jul 25, 2015 5 0 4,510 Jul 25, 2015 #1 I'm upgrading from a 560 to a 960 - coupling the new card with my i5 2500k at 3.3 GHz. Will my older processor bottleneck the new GPU, or should I be able to squeeze out most current games at high settings?

Solution RazerZ Jul 25, 2015 You will be fine with the 2500k, no bottleneck. It can handle any GPU(s) on the market.
