965 BE Bottleneck?

[kreek]

I have searched around for this quite a bit, but I have never found a distinct flat out answer to this. Here is the question:

Would a 965 BE at stock bottleneck a 6950 or 6970?
Would it bottleneck them when the 965 BE is overclocked?
Lastly, how would the 965 BE perform in a WoW 25 man raid or other CPU stressing situations?

I'm just wondering if somebody can answer these questions for me.

Thanks!

Bottle neck would depend on game and resolution but at 1920 x 1080 there should generally not be much.
Overclocking should get rid of any bottleneck except in very CPU intensive games.
WOW much prefers Intel and Nvidia hardware but it should run OK no idea of numbers though.

You could use a benchmarking program and check the numbers. Passmark, 3Dmark06 or 3Dmark Vantage will check CPU and graphics and can compare the score for those components. Theres also the program Everest that can benchmark CPU and RAM

probably not your cpu model is just enough

I don't think it would.

Ok I was just curious. I'm actually buying the i5 2500k but I'm a big tech junkie and I like to know everything.
