So yeah, so will my intel core2duo e8500 @3,96 ghz still be good enouf for gaming? Its overclocked with liquid cooling. And ofc its an old prosessor but it runs at pretty high ghz. Im using it with new gtx650. So will i be able to play games like watchdogs on medium and full hd or do i have to put my settings on low?

Watch dogs for example has a lot of effects and shaders and all of that, which means that it is a pretty challenging game for a pc. Your pc will handle it very smoothly on medium to high settings with the vsync probably off :)
And if it handles watch dogs good it will handle most games (new high end games) very good on the medium to high settings :)
