Will my CPU bottleneck my graphics card?

Squishy Gangstah · Sep 3, 2016

Hey guys, I have been looking to upgrade my graphics card to a gtx 960 ftw edition but am worried about my cpu (intel core i3) bottlenecking it and not letting it achieve its fullest potential. My question is should I worry about bottlenecking? And if so how can I avoid it or fix it? Thanks alot, George

Which i3 is it? Most i3s would be perfectly fine with a GTX960.

Sadly I have no idea what i3 it is. What if I change gtx 960 for 1060 mini?

I could answer that question better if I knew which i3 you had. Can you give me any info on your PC? What brand? How old?

You can right click on "This PC" or "My Computer" and go to properties and it will tell you.

i3-4150 CPU @ 3.5Ghz sorry it took me so long to answer I've been really busy.

That i3 would be great with a 960 and at least be decent with a 1060
