I've got a 5 year old PC and some money to spare so I'm thinking about upgrading, but I'm not sure if my current PC will be able to keep up with the new card. I'm not an expert; I vaguely know what bottlenecking is and I've never overclocked anything.
Here's the details for my PC from when I bought it, discounting stuff like the DVD drive and the antivirus. I can provide more information if it would be helpful. If this seems hopelessly outdated, what sort of CPU/other components should I be looking at to keep up with the new GPU? I'm looking for a gaming PC, and I care a lot about quiet/silent running. If I was buying a new PC, I'd probably go back to Mesh and I wouldn't want to spend much more than £1000.
Intel® Core™ i5 750 Quad Core Processor (2.66GHz, 8MB Cache) - LGA1156
Windows 7 Home Premium Edition - 64bit English
NZXT HUSH Silent Brushed Aluminium ATX Midi Tower - Black + 700W PSU
ASUS P7P55D LE Mainboard - Intel Core™ i5 / i7 - LGA 1156 / ATX
8GB 1333MHz Dual Channel DDR3 SDRAM - ( 4x2GB )
1GB ATi HD4890 Graphics accelerator DVI, DirectX 10.1 PCI Express 2
24" Iiyama Prolite E2407HDS-B1 (1920x1080) Full HD Monitor
Any advice?
