The graphics card should be fine, but the *slowest* cpu they tested was an i3 (2 cores + HT, equivalent to an AMD quad core) and that was dropping to 24fps minimums. I think the X2 270 is going to struggle, however his motherboard does support up to Phenom II X4 if he can find one cheap on ebay.


Toms did an interesting review on what you need to play WatchDogs...

From what they found you're HD7770 will be fine for lower settings (it is the same card as the 'R7 250X'), however I think you're CPU might struggle (based on their review it likes cores, if you could upgrade to a quad core Athalon 2 or Phenom II that would be a big improvement).

You're motherboard is fine for the graphics card btw (basically all a graphics card needs is a PCIe 2 x 16 slot and enough power so a decent power supply is a must for higher end cards, although the 7770 isn't too bad in that respect).
