Looking for an upgrade - Advice is needed

[Ernest_11]

Dear Community,

I have the following PC spec:

Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600 2.4 Ghz
GIGABYTE P35-DS3L
6 GB RAM
NVIDIA GeForce 8800 GT

I wanted just to upgrade my video card so something a bit better and wanted to know if it will be ok or due to the aging computer it might be risky?

I was thinking about Sapphire Radeon RX 460 OC 2GB or any other graphic card you can recommend.

Any help will be appreciated,

Best Regards.

well you could try that, but I'm afraid that your PC might bottleneck the card, since this is pretty old hardware.

Do you have any other recommendation?

well if you could your hands on a more competitive CPU and Motherboard then sure the RX 460 would work fine, with something as cheap as the AMD FX8350 which is 6 years old but still performs very decently with titles like the Division, Battlefield 1, Titanfall 2, etc.
