Hello, i want to ask something. I found a good stock deal of motherboard and i bought it. I took http://www.gigabyte.com/products/product-page.aspx?pid=5182#ov at 30€ and i bought it. And now im planning on buying the i7 4790k or the i5 k. Im planning on buying 4+4 mb of ram at 1600 speed and a ssd 240 gb. BUT i will upgrade my gpu 2-3 months later. I now have a geforce gt 240 ddr3 512mb

All i want to ask is IF i'm gonna face any bottleneck problems because the mobo or the ram or the gpu is really low for that processor..

That cpu is great. I have a 4790K. I would not use it on that motherboard though. There is no heatsink on the vrms and the 4790K draws around 80-90 watts.

Since you already bought it, you can test it will a high end cpu under load, if it shuts down while stress testing then I would get a better motherboard.

As for bottlenecking. You wont experience any. The 4790K can handle a 1080 perfectly haha
The gpu that you currently have is really low power so once you upgrade gpus, youll be set for gaming
