No offense intended if english isn't your native language, but either way, this post is kind of hard to read. I would suggest reposting it with a little more detail to your question.

It will likely bottleneck some, depends on the game really.
Your motherboard can use core2duos btw and even a cheap low end one like the e5200 will be a huge upgrade over the Pentium D, especially if you overclock it.

ditto. Upgrade to a dual core to get the most out of that graphics card.

He does have a dual core, a bad one however.

If this is to be believed the HD5670 should be a lil over 20% more powerful than the HD4670;
