So i have an old computer with an e6850 and an 8800gt. i want to upgrade but i currently dont have that much money to spend on an entire new system, since changing the cpu will also require a new motherboard and ram and so on...
Which graphics card can i get that wont be bottlenecked by this old core 2 duo, 3.0 ghz cpu? will an 650 ti boost or a 7850 be able to run at its full potential or at least close to it?
if not, will something like a 7790 be a significant improvement over the 8800gt?
thanks
also, i wasnt sure whether i should post this on the cpu forum or the gpu forum, if posted it in the wring place please let me know
