Is my cpu a bottleneck for gaming? I can play BF2 with medium settings but I get intense skipping sometimes and I am starting to assume that the CPU is choking the system. Most people I talk to say that with my GPU I should be able to run everything on high. Is the CPU underpowered?
AMD64 3500+
Asus A8V Mobo
ATI Radeon X800XT PE AGP
2Gb Corsair XMS 3200LL
SB X-Fi Extreme Music Edition
250GB WD 7200
I'm thinking of upgrading everything to a 7800 SLI setup with FX-57 but if I can just get a good leap with my current config with a small change I would do that first.
Thanks in advance for your opinion on this matter...
