Depends on the game. In most cases, no. Some games that depend on quad core CPU's will bottleneck on the CPU though.

Those are a fairly good match in that upgrading either one wouldn't significantly help without upgrading the other. I'd say your good to go.

Oh ok thanks very much. Im a newbie on buildping PCs and this will be my first build.. Im building a pc to play Bf4 on 720p low- med settings will that be good? And you say im good to go so it means there will be no performance drop? And is it a good cpu - gpu match?

Yes a good CPU/GPU match meaning they should not really bottleneck each other which is what I meant by good to go. Yes it passes the minimum specs for BF4 so it should be playable you may have a few issues on multiplayer with a lot of people though.

Have you already bought it?

The 250 isn't bad for a budget build for sure. You may want to start a build thread with your budget and see what some people say they may have some deals or the like to maximize your budget.

Yes and no. Your GPU has to have a PSU that can handle it. And the CPU must be compatible with your mobo or that will need to be replaced as well.

I cannot see the cart from that website. If you could build it on this website http://pcpartpicker.com/ and post the perma link in the top left we will be able to see and make changes for you there.
