So i have a Intel Core2 Extreme X9650 @ 3.00GHz clocked @ 3.33Ghz and i wanna know if it will bottle neck a gtx 480 cause my old gtx 280 is getting old and have a hard time holding up with the new games that are coming out
 
Solution
You should be fine, although overclocking the GTX 480 substantially could make the CPU become a minor bottle-neck, in which case a slightly greater CPU overclock would solve that.
