Hello.
I would like to know how important the CPU is when considering games. I am probably going to get a GTX580 to run games like BF3 pretty much maxed out, but i am just curious whether my CPU would be holding the system back in terms of being able to do this. I currently have an Intel core i7 920 2,67 Ghz (2,8 with turbo).
I would like to know whether you guys think i should OC it or if it wont be a problem.
The thing is i have never OC'ed anything before, and i dont know how dangerous it can be for the system or if my PSU can handle it etc.
Thank you in advance
