Will Intel Pentium G620 bottleneck ?

[sampad_banerjee]

Will intel pentium G620 bottleneck with graphic cards from GT 600 series or GTX series ?

 

[Bluemoon_9]

maybe no if you are running a 610. maybe yes if you are running a 640. Definitely yes if you are running a 690.

But I know for sure this processor supports DDR3 1066 and PCI express 2.0. The real bottleneck will be there.

 

[sampad_banerjee]

what if I go for Gt 630 or Gtx 650 ?

 

[Bluemoon_9]

Go ahead, but remember your RAM's are slow and the PCI slot is old too. You need to upgrade your mobo/CPU/RAM down the line. I would say get the best GPU you can get now and save for future upgrades.

I do hope you have a decent power supply

 

[sampad_banerjee]

power supply's no problem.
but will I be able to run any of the two above mentioned cards, if I buy and use them now ?

 

[Bluemoon_9]

Yes, if your mobo has a PCI express 2.0 or 3.0 slot you can run them.

Your CPU support DDR3 1066 and PCI 2.0. PCI 3.0 is fully compatible with the PCI 2.0. So you are good with any PCI 3.0 card.

Here is your CPU specifications
