HD 5770 and i3 530

[rahul babaria]

My resolotion is 1366*768 (16 inch)
I want to buy HD 5770 in my area the price is 210$ so if i get i3 530 2.93 ghz instead of i5 750 will it bottlekneck the graphics card.

Get 5750 instead
Even 5750 is an overkill for the resolution

With 5750, at that resolution, you will be able to play all games maximized including CRYSIS.

But you won't feel to upgrade your GPU for more than a couple of years or so.

i3 530 is a great choice.

That'll be my next PC(Hopefully)

Not really. As you can see here it averages 20 fps with Crysis fully maxed at 1280x1024 with a minimum of 14 fps.

His resolution is slightly lower but for smooth game play a 30 fps minimum is generally the goal and it will still be far from that.
That said trying to max out Crysis is a poor way to choose a video card. The HD5750 should be very good although here at least(the US) it's a bit sketchy value wise compared to the significantly cheaper HD4850. I don't know the prices of those cards there however so that may be irrelevant.

Well,
Looking at 1024 vs 768
I think it can play it.
