I have msi z97 gaming 5 and an i54460 so i was wondering if somebody could explain me how can i know if a GPU would fit without any performance drop.
I just wanted to know what should i look for next time im buying a GPU, how can i now if it will bottleneck?
 
Solution
with an i5-4460 there won't be any significant bottleneck no matter which GPU you'll get
as long as you don't play with a 1080 on 800x600 resloution.

what were you aiming for?

Thanks for the answer, i was just wondering if all the new cards that come out, for example 970, this year 1070, next year 1170, will my CPU handle that? I never aim for 980 1080 and stuff because i just dont need that much power
