Some time soon the GTX 660Ti will come out and i plan to get it.

System:
CPU: Core 2 Quad Q8300 2.5GHz
Mobo: ASUS P5G41CM-LX
Memory: 4GB 1333Hz Corsair XMS3 CL8
PSU: 550W CIT (I know, this will be upgraded together with the 660)

Will my current computer spec bottle the 660Ti?

The 550W psu is fine if it's quality. What's the model number?

Yes you will be bottle necked in some scenarios, depending on the game and, of course, how well the 660ti performs. I wouldn't spend over $200 on a gpu with that cpu.

Also you shouldn't plan on buying things before they are even official. You have no idea of the price point or performance. I don't even think the gpu (gxxx) and clock speeds are known yet.
