I'm just install a 4850 to my system and my proc is e6300.
Will it seriously bottlenecking the entire system?
I'm just running RE5 benchmark and it just gave me a "C" with high setting with no AA and no VSync on Direct 10... T.T
Coz i just can't OC'ing my e6300, my GA 965P DS3 lock that feature...
And it's pretty hard to find someones who want sell their Q6700 to me...
My overall score rating on Windows 7 is 4,8 and That's my cpu score.
Is there another way?
Thank u very much...
C2D E6300 @ 1.86GHz can easily be overclocked to around 2.4GHz which will reduce the bottleneck. If you can get it to 3.0GHz, then it should be fine and not bottleneck your GPU.
P2D E6300 @ 2.8GHz won't bottleneck your GPU even at stock, but you can OC it easily to around 3.2GHz if you want to.

@ loneninja :
Is there any differences between them?
E6300 FSB 1066Mhz 1,8Ghz...
I Think that's the old one...
Again... that quad things make me want to cry... T.T
and when i'm playing mass effect, i set on all High and it's still run smooth...
@ubernoobie :
I'm press ctrl+F1 when post screen or when i'm in BIOS?
no experience at all about overclocking... wew...
thx bluescreendeath..
but, same question as ubernoobie,how to OC my cpu?
I never touch OC thing before. when i'm on bios i couldn't do anything for my CPU like clock speed or frequency , the box is grayed...
Any idea?
Boot up your computer. It should say "press this button to go into..."
Press that button and you should be in BIOS.
Your total clockspeed/frequency is your individual clockspeed multiplied by the multiplier. You can change the clockspeed but not the multiplier (in most cpus)
i had try to oc'ing, on bios screen say my speed increased to 2,0 ghz. but when i look at properties on my computer, it say 1,86 ghz. it's still the same before oc...
what happened?
Didn't windows detect change?
and when i use cpu-z, it say 1,86mhz...
any idea?
yes, i can OC it and now it run on 2.0 GHz.
but now, based on EASY TUNES 6,when idle my cpu's temp is 65'C and my GPU is 62'C...
I assume it's hot, right?
I can't control my GPU speed fan, it's spin about 40%... (on GPU-Z)
...
A new fan? or heatsink maybe? currently i have 4 fan on my case.
My heatsink is Blue Orb Mini, it's ThermalTake...
GPU temperature has nothing to do with the fan speed of your heatsink & fan.
You'd have to increase the GPU fan speed to lower that temperature.
See if increasing the fan speed of your CPU willl lower your CPU temps. You shouldn't be getting more than 50'C at that speed when idle.
What voltage is your cpu at? What is your room temperature?
When I turned on my AC to reduce my room temperature from 80'F to 70'F, my CPU temps (i7 920) dropped about 6'C from 48'C to 41'C...so ambient temperatures are quite important.
26'C is pretty warm, and the temperatures seems right for your CPU. 49'C for your GPU is pretty cool, since most 4850s idle at 60'C or above, depending on the model.
That looks like a fine cooler. You should try OCing with your current cooler and see what you get.
Basically any aftermarket cooler is better than the Intel stock cooler that comes with the cpu.
The Artic Pro 7 is a good HSF cooler, I used to have it myself. You can get it for less than $30 on newegg or Amazon. My only complaint is that it uses push pins, so it's ridiculously difficult to tell whether you've installed it properly or not. Also, when you install it, it takes a good deal of twisting and pressure before it clicks into place...so you feel like you're breaking your motherboard. There were also some cases when the push-pins weren't tight enough and came somewhat loose...and my former E8400 rig almost overheated.
But if you can get past those push-pin flaws, it's a good cooler.
