Firstly welcome to TPU.

Concerning the bottle neck, with the OC on the CPU, possibly will have one, but definitely not as bad as the bottleneck you would have on the card if your CPU was at stock.

thanks.. that was a bit comforting since i'm not yet planning on replacing my proc. as of this time, because i'm just gaming most on this pc and just a very slight video editing so not thinking much on extra cpu cache.

Shall we say its just fine to use this card on my current proc.? I mean the bottleneck effect of this card is neglegible, right?

Who cares about bottlenecks. I would put a GTX 280 with my Core 2 Duo E4400 running at stock.(2ghz)
