Hi there,
So I had a question before I will purchase any new graphics card.
In my previous post I asked about my pc can run watch dogs, so now I've read about the bottleneck on older cpus.
Before I go further here are my specs :
Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600 2,4Ghz, But it running at 3,03Ghz
Club Radeon HD 6790 1GB
4GB ddr2 ram
So, I planned to buy myself a Gtx 660 from nvidia, but it seems that alot of people said the old cpu will bottleneck the newer gpu.
But! If I overclock it to (cpu) : 3,6Ghz does it still bottleneck the gpu much? or do I still get a big improvement overall and able to run BF/WD High Details? Maby Ultra?
New things I wanted to buy :
Nvidia gtx660 or MSI GeForce GTX 760 (But that one is too powerfull for now)
And for the cpu cooling (When overclocking to 3,6Ghz) :
CoolerMaster Hyper TX3 Evo (Socket 775)
BTW : I'm able to overclock my cpu with stock-cooler to 3,30 to 3,40Ghz MAX
Thanks for reading,
