Hi, i'm wondering if my AMD ALTHON 3500+ Venice core @ 2.2ghz will bottleneck my HIS x1900XT 512MB video card? I'm not sure if it can keep up with such a high end card. If it is going to bottleneck how can i prevent that? OR should i get a lower end card such as 7900GT to be more consistant.

That processor is plenty fast and can eaisly oveclock to 2.6GHz. It will only have problems when multitasking. Just don't burn any DVD's while playing games.
