So firstly a little backround of my pc build, in Nov. 2014 i built my first pc that contained the EVGA GTX 970 that i spent $350 at the time, an intel I5 4690k that was $200 at the time.
I have this deal with micro center which i'm allowed to return theses products for the money i payed in store credit which amounts to $550. Im considering putting in more money on my upgrades however i don't want to spend over $700 total( that's $150 of my money including the store credit).
At microcenter i found that the EVGA gtx 1070 SC seems a good upgrade and they have one for about $450. I'm pretty dead set on getting this graphics card but im not really sure about the right CPU to get. I know bottle necking can be a problem in GPU-CPU problems so i don't want to go too cheap on the cpu.
I would really appreciate suggestions on the Best, reasonably priced CPU i can get that wont bottleneck. please make the cpu under $300
thank you
