I wonder if i will have bottleneck with this cpu and 2 980ti at benchmarks because a guy i know said that he had bottleneck with i5 6600k and one 980ti when he tested on benchmakrs!
 
Solution
A i7 5820 will bottleneck a GTX 1080 to some extent. Just like a i7 3930k will also bottleneck a GT 730. Dont believe me run mixed benchmarks on a GT 730 with a i7 5820k and a 3930k I know there will be a difference in tests. It does not mean though it will cause a human difference. Every part will bottleneck each other to some extent and bottleneck is not bad ether. So yes a GTX 960/970/980/980ti/1080 will be bottlenecked by a i5 / i7 and so on. The slowest part will always bottleneck sometimes it is the GPU sometimes the CPU but there will always be bottleneck.
A CPU benchmark or a combined CPU+GPU benchmark maybe you'll see a "bottleneck" but those are unrealistic loads.
In the realworld they won't bottleneck, because they do two separate things. But if you start trying to measure their raw computing power you'll get different numbers if they both have to work together.

well the point of my question is will i have a bottleneck even with the new gtx 1080 with any i5 of 4th or 6th generation?

yeah i know thats why i only say benchmarks..you can't see difference in real enviroments.So only on benchmarks where cpu and gpu pushed to their limits you can have "bottleneck" with an i5 and new cards right?
