I have a pc that is going to be eight years old soon. While I am looking to put together a new rig with Intel i5, GeForce 650 or thereabouts soon, the old machine will still be used. It has
Athlon X2 3800+ (about the only thing original), 2gigs of ram, ASUS A8S-X motherboard, Windows Vista, and PCIe GeForce 210. Nothing is overclocked. Should I try overclocking and hope I have to get a new gpu, or will the old processor limit it too much to bother? Thanks
