Being the real genius I was, I thought my processor was fairly good enough to play modern games. I figured I'd just go and get myself a decently good graphics card with a bigger PSU to call it a day. Of course, I didn't really consider how much bottleneck there would be thanks to my CPU (which really isn't terrible in my opinion)
Graphics Card:MSi GTX 465 Twin Frozr II (unlocked to GTX 470)
Processor:Intel Core 2 Quad Q8200 2.33 GHz, 1333 MHz FSB (stock)
RAM: 6 GB DDR2 SDRAM (stock)
Motherboard: Pegatron Corporation Benicia (stock)
Power Supply: Rosewill RG630-S12 630 Wattz
So... how much potential does my GPU get bottlenecked at, especially considering how my card will be unlocked? I don't have my card right now, my sister is trying to unlock it. Should I get a new motherboard and try to overclock my existing CPU? Stick with what I have and wait it out for a new motherboard in the future? Anything? Thanks in advance.
By the way, I can't overclock with the stock motherboard. I need to get a new one if I had to overclock.
