Possible CPU bottleneck with a Powercolor HD 7850 2GB

KM75 · May 19, 2013

Would an Intel Intel® Core 2 Extreme QX9650 or QX9770 be a bottleneck for an HD 7850? Im wondering since the GPU is quite newer than the CPU.

Thanks

KM75 :

It shouldn't, but why go with an outdated and pricey cpu?

Already have the PSU. Was just wondering about the video card.

Do you already own either of those old CPU's? If you don't own them then Do not buy them. They are pricey and you could get much better performance with a modern CPU.

I meant to say I already own one the CPUs. I have the Xeon equivalent in my workstation actually. I obtained them both for 41 dollars each.

well if you already have it, then it shouldn't bottleneck at all, but if it does, it will not be by much at all. overall you should be fine.
