Hi there, I currently own an ACER SA90 which isnt the best setup performance wise.

I know the mobo has 16X PCIE Lane.

I have a : 600w psu, Intel D 3.2 dual core cpu, 4gb corsair ddr2 800.

I have just orded the sapphire 4870 from ebay, I would like to know if it would work ok with this setup. Will the cpu or motherboard bottleneck the card?

Thanks guys

The CPU will definitely bottleneck it.
