I have Athlon x2 260 processor that I know is outdated. I used to play games like Battlefield 4 with this processor and GTX 650 and MSI AMD RADEON HD 7770.

I have a Corsair Vengeance 4GB (x2) RAM and 450W Local PSU where I used to play those games with GTX 650 and MSI HD 7000.

I want to upgrade my pc but I don't have a lot of money to buy GTX 1060 and i5 6600 right now. If I can somehow manage to buy GTX 1060 and play games like Battlefield 1 offline and other offline games with this specs then I will be able to manage to buy i5 6600 within next 6 months.

I really wanted to buy this graphics card because maybe I won't be able to upgrade the gpu within next 2 years.

Lower bottlenecks can be accepted if I'm playing online.

So I just had one question if I could manage to play games with Athlon x2 260 and GTX 650 in Low or medium settings.

it would not run well at all online, horrible


offline, would still be pretty bad but maybe you can deal with it... /shrug

dont expect much



also what do you mean by "local" psu?

if it's a garbage psu you would risk blowing up the nice new 1060



you most likely will need a proper psu first
