Hi,
I recently got a mid to high-spec gaming PC which can run Battlefield 4 on Medium settings. The specs are:
CPU: AMD FX 4100 Quad Core 3.6 GHz
GPU: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 650 2GB
8GB RAM
I'd like to upgrade it so that I can run next gen games on High-Ultra settings and so I'm planning to get a GTX 760, but my friend who knows a fair amount about PCs says that the GPU might be bottlenecked by the CPU and I should also upgrade my CPU (he recommended the AMD FX 8350 Eight Core 4 GHz). My question is, will I need to upgrade my CPU when I upgrade my GPU?
PS any advice on a different GPU/CPU to upgrade to is appreciated.
