I want to upgrade my old 9500 GT to a HD 7770, HD 6850, or GTX 470, but I am concerned that my Athlon II x2 255 @ 3.10 Ghz will bottleneck any of them.
My current system is
Mobo: Asus m4A78LT-M-LE, 8GB 1333 RAM, Athlon II x2 255 3.10 Ghz, Nvidia 9500 GT.
I just want to play games like Battlefield 3, Guild Wars 2 and such with decent graphics and framerates. I don`t need Ultra settings, just decent. And i probably won`t have money to upgrade my processor. I can just place better cooler and OC it, if needed.
I`ve found all of the metioned GPU`s on the same price (second hand), and I want to know will it be a good idea to upgrade to any of them, even if I get only around 80% of them.
Thanks in advance
