Help Bottleneck issue

[yasio]

Hello, I wanted to know if a GTX 560 non-ti (gigabyte) will be bottlenecked by a Q9300 oc @ 3.2 ghz. If so, should I go with a GTX550 ti or a GTX 460 ti and will they be bottlenecked as well. Thanks !

I would say no, that should be ok.

The will be perfectly fine . You will lose a couple of frames a second over using a brand new 2500k/ z68 mb combo
Its a sensible upgrade IMO

Ok but will I be able to run my games on pretty hig rez on my 42'' monitor (tv) on 720p at a decent frame rate?

BTW thanks for the fast answer 😀

Oh and hey, when I plug my video card with a HDMI cable, will it transfer the sound too ?? Thanks !

720p is such a low resolution [ screen size is NOT important ] that a 560 ti is actually over kill
Make sure Vsync is enabled in the driver or you may damage the tv

You can damage a TV/Monitor by not having Vsync? Please explain :O

Also yes i'm pretty sure you could plug HDMI and use your TV's speakers, thats what my TV seems to do when i turn off my sound card and i'm plugged via HDMI.

I can't understand how anyone can play games today on anything less than a Sony 84" screen. What's the point? /s

xD Well Thanks again for your answers and for the Vsync issue, how can this be ??


Seeya !
