Hello there. I'm buying a new video card. To be specific, it is a Sapphire Radeon HD 4890 with 1gb of RAM. I'm thinking about also purchasing a new LG monitor, but that depends on if I need to purchase a new processor.
I currently have an Intel Core 2 Duo E6400 (2.13ghz). If I want to run games on maximum settings, I know that the video card exceeds expectations, but will my CPU limit me from running games at maximum settings?
I was also thinking that maybe I could overclock it to make up the difference, but I'm a little bit scared that I might fry something... Knowing me.
