hi all

currently my specs are

intel core 2 duo e7300 @ 2.66ghz
2 gb ram
asus p5sd2vm motherboard
nvidia geforce 9400gt


firstly i want to upgrade my gpu to play more advance games . i want to go with nvidia gtx 560ti . Whether this card compatible with my mobo and processor or do i have any bottleneck with this . If so please suggest a good gpu upgrade with my current specs .


also please tell me if processor has to do with gaming or just upgrading the system with a good gpu will work for me . thanks in advance

also please spare me for my bad english
 
Solution
Upgrading the GPU will not make much difference for modern games because the CPU and RAM are such a bottleneck even for the 560Ti. I would really save up a lot more money to upgrade a lot more stuff than just the GPU. So wait I'd say.
