[SOLVED] gt 1030 and core 2 duo 4500

[Kawaljit]

will the c2d 4500 bottleneck the gt 1030 for games like fortnite and rainbow six siege?

Core 2 Duo E4500 is way too weak for GT 1030.

Fortnite with E4500, GT 1030 and 8GB of RAM: https://www.game-debate.com/games/index.php?g_id=4521&game=Fortnite&p_make=Intel&p_deriv=Core+2+Duo+E4500+2.2GHz&gc_make=Nvidia&gc_deriv=GeForce+GT+1030&ram=8&checkSubmit=#systemrequirements
Rainbow Six: Siege with E4500, GT 1030 and 8GB of RAM: https://www.game-debate.com/games/index.php?g_id=20387&game=Rainbow+Six%3A+Siege&p_make=Intel&p_deriv=Core+2+Duo+E4500+2.2GHz&gc_make=Nvidia&gc_deriv=GeForce+GT+1030&ram=8&checkSubmit=#systemrequirements

For both games, CPU doesn't even match the minimum CPU spec. For example, minimum for Fortnite would be i3-4330 and here's comparison between it and E4500,

If you would get Q8400 it would run fine then.
