Generally speaking there will always be some cases of CPU bottlenecking. However with the number of options available now this will mostly not be the case with high end GPUs.
If you run everything at lower settings you are going to be capped out by CPU. As you start to turn on more and more settings your bottleneck will become the GPU. There may be some games where you could get a few more frames with a better CPU but generally speaking you are talking about one of the top tier processors.
Some games are affected more by CPU than others such as GTA.
What games do you plan on playing?
Come on bro. '__'4570 bottleneck hell yeah.
you need a 5960x stat!
Watch dogs, Battlefield 4, far cry 4, crisis 3, metro last light, shadow of mordor
all on ultra to high settings
You will be fine, you may get a few fps with higher frequency on the CPU but if you dont want to spend more you will hardly notice the performance difference in real life gaming at those high image quality settings.
I already gave you an example for Crysis 3.So its just a few fps drop?
About 10 fps max?
