975 BE Bottleneck.

[jespere]

Hey all.

I didn't find the answer on google, so i thought i might try here ;

Will an 975 BE Bottleneck a 670 whatever, and if so, will it be very noticeable? Im running standard clock speed and was hoping to play BF3 at high(er) settings, and the newer games aswell (like GTA V, MoH Warfighter).

Thankfull for any help.

I suppose it might, but it wouldn't be that bad and you can just easily OC anyway, if it does.

That's the thing though, I would love it if i didn't have to overclock it in it's lifespan at all, for 2 reasons:
1. Cramped case (Antec three hundred).
2. Stock cooler.

Yeah, that makes sense. Still though, I don't think it'll bottleneck much, if at all, at stock.

It will slightly but not really in anyway thats going to bother you (as in you will still see solid frame rates).

You know most Denebs can be pushed to 3.7 on stock cooler (same speed as a 980) and your case would be fine to OC on with a decent air cooler added the 300 is far from cramped.

Oh shoot, i forgot, i will be using it on a PCI-E 2(.1?)(Asus M4N98TD EVO). Will it change the amount of bottleneck?

As far as the CPU goes, WIll i really see that much difference with 100 mhz raised clock speed?
