Hi,
I am creating a new system from some other peoples spare parts. The problem is the motherboard has an AGP socket (ASUS A8V Socket 939).
I was wondering whether my ram and processor would be sufficient to support the graphics card/s i am thinking of:
Ati HD3850
or wait for the AGP version of 4000 series, 4670 i believe
(which i would love to head towards)

My Processor and RAM are:
Opteron 170 dual-core (2.0ghz i believe)
2gb Mushkin Redline XP4000
(these should be fairly overclockable)
Can anyone help me? Is this going to massively bottleneck?
Its been about 6 or 7 years since i've built a pc, im a little out of date.
Money is an issue, thats why the majority are spare parts.
