Hey everyone, I'm currently building a Sager NP7280 (Clevo X7200) Gaming Laptop. I've decided on everything, including dual SLI GTX 485M along with an Intel Core i7 960 desktop processor. Will my CPU be okay with these 2 GPUs? or do I need to upgrade to i7 970 or i7 990X?

I know nothing about bottlenecking and it's scaring me, any help would be much appreciated!
