Can i5 2400 bottleneck GTX970?

  • I test 4 games that requires in some parts a very strong cpu, so here I will show some cases where cpu can keep 60fps at ultra settings.
    Keep in mind that these are extreme scenarios, where we get the 100% of cpu usage.
    PC specs:
    I5 2400 @3.6Ghz (every core)
    GTX 970 @1500Mhz core
    Kingston HyperX blu 2x4 @1866Mhz
    Asrock Pe67 Pro3
    OCZ Modxstream 500W

    Yes an i5 2400 will bottleneck the GTX 970 however it isn't a substantial bottleneck, if you want a CPU that won't bottleneck but still uses the 1155 socket then buy an i7 2600.

    HEYNOW - Cool Video, I play with HP Compaq Elite 8200 ssd with i5-2400 / 16gb RAM / Gtx 1050 ti low profile Gpu .... Your Overclock is achievable by your motherboard I'm guessing . Thanx for posting.

      tip #1:
      Purchase an RX 480 for $239
      tip #2:
      Buy a motherboard with the LGA1155 socket. It doesn't really matter as long as it supports your RAM, CPU, and GPU.

      +Arthur A (artxays) Yes is worth to buy it, but in some cpu demanding games you will need to put some effects to high in order to keep solid 60fps. These titles are most intensive that I have found to do this video.
      Also if you have a better cpu I would recommend the R9 390.

      @Lilia The 750ti / 1050 ti is on the lower end of what this CPU can power, the GTX 970 / GTX 1060 on the higher end of the spectrum. Really the only card that I know of that almost perfectly fits this CPU for 1080p gaming is the R9 380x nitro.
      It's kinda dumb that the difference in performance between the 1050ti and the 1060 is so huge (GTX 1060 being almost twice as fast).
