i7 3820 not overclocked could bottleneck 680 gtx Sli?


Recommended Posts

I am going to buy a new PC with 680 gtx Sli. If I equip it with a i7 3820 not overclocked (i.e. standard 3,6 Ghz), could the 680 gtx Sli be limited by the CPU? Would a i7 3930k be a better choice? Worth spending more money? In a nutshell, if I decide to equip my 680 gtx Sli with a 3930k rather than a 3820 what fps boost range could I expect to gain playing at 1920x1080 all filters ON (AA, AF, AO and so on)?

An i5 wouldn't, bottleneck the graphics card, CPUs today are far more powerful than what is required for games. So not, there no worries APU an i7 bottle necking anything.
