Hi,
I am planning on upgrading my graphics card from a Radeon 5850 to a GTX 770 2GB version. I am also planning on having two screens, a new primary 120hz monitor (most likely to be a Benq XL2420Z) and my current 60hz monitor as a secondary extended screen.
My current CPU is a phenom II x4 955 running overclocked at 3.8 GHz with 8GB of 1337MHz ram.
The issue is I am not sure whether this CPU will be able to keep up with the GTX 770, could it cause a bottleneck? If so should I wait to do a CPU upgrade before changing my graphics card?
Any further advice on graphics cards would be greatly appreciated as I am still unsure as to whether this is the best option, my budget is no more than £250.
Thanks.
