I bought my buddies 780ti for around 225 USD, I was wondering if my CPU was going to bottleneck. I know it's not the ideal setup for a 780ti. But It should play most games at decent quality and a decent frame rate right?

Echoing rolli59 - Great card. Not unplayable at all - it should be pretty good. But the card will get much better frames with a stronger CPU obviously and there may be some games that might have annoying hiccups and weak performance due to that APU... but I doubt anything will be unplayable. I'm thinking it should be pretty sweet :)
 


You are welcome. Really it is simple one part or the other stops an another from reaching its full potential and limits performance.

Wait why does the Intel I5 2500k out perform the AMD 9590? That's one of the newest AMD cpus
 


Nothing new about the 9590! It is only an overclocked FX8350 with obscene power draw! FX architecture has not been updated for over 3 years and they were already behind then!
