Hello,
My sys is 8GB ddr2, GA-X48-DS4 mobo and Intel E8400 CPU, with a single 7850HD GPU.
1. Someone told me that the CPU bottlenecks the GPU. Is that correct ?
2. If it is, what can solve this - OCing the CPU ? to what speed?
3. I found a used Q9550 cpu - will it solve the supposed bottle-necking issue, and moreover, can it fully support 2X7850HD (crossfire) ? if not, will a q9650?
Thank you !
