Would the CPU get bottlenecked?

Hi.
Would the CPU get bottlenecked by the GPU?

CPU: AMD Athlon ii x4 641 2.8ghz

GPU: AMD Radeon 6790 1gb

Also what power supply would you recommend I get for these?

Ok say on Starcraft II.. but I mean generally on a decent game.
Also let's say 1366 x 768.. or a 1080p screen.

Starcraft II is severely CPU limited (lots of units and game only utilise around 2 cores). Even the low end Celeron G530 would be on par, or not better than any than the Athlon II.

Have you actually already got the CPU and graphic card you mentioned? If not you would be better off just stat your budget so that people can pick better parts for you.

I havn't bought these yet.

Then we can probably get some better parts with your budget. What's your budget and what parts do you need? Windows? Monitor? Mouse? etc...
