[usmansajid]

i5 3550 or i5 2500 both ar 3.30 with 6gb ram
i want to run gtx 690
which will perform more good?

With a GTX 690?
You insane? Surely get a i5 3570k atleast.
Out o them i5 3550 is better. As it is 3rd Gen

Get a GTX 670. Next-Gen is around. You can get GTX 790 later if you want.
And sell that GTX 670 for a little

 

[usmansajid]

i cant run gtx 690?

 

[usmansajid]

it will bottleneck?

 

[Sumukh_Bhagat]

You can run. No Major Bottlenecks
But why you are spending much on GTX 690 and less on CPU?

the 2500k oc s better though
