I would love to help but i know little about amd cpu's as i have always used intel. I looked at the specs on it and i cant see how it would bottleneck, plenty of cache, six cores..... hmm. try what blackdog was saying first otherwise when i had my Q8200 which i had clocked to 3.15ghz it still bottlenecked my 570. granted you have a better cpu, but use afterburner to check how the gpu usage fluctuates; when i had my bottleneck it would fluctuate between 70-99% like crazy, now with my i-5 it's pretty much a smooth line at 99%. good luck
