VGA Bottleneck Question

Solution
It more depends on the games you play.

But on average, since it does not bottleneck HD 7850, it should not bottleneck HD 7870 too.
It would work very fine since the CPU is old but fast enough.
Oh well.

Is it core 2 duo or core 2 quad?

Core 2 Duo is dual core CPU while Core 2 Quad is quad core CPU.
If it is quad core (As I am assuming with its clock speed) it would not bottleneck HD 7870 at all.

In fact it would be a very good combination.

If it is Core 2 Duo then it would definitely bottleneck.
