Hi,
I currently use an intel P-D 805 OC to 3.3GHz and an X850XT vga by sapphire.
This vga has pixel shader model 2.1 and many new games does not support pixel shader model lower then 3.0.
Since i want my next big upgrade to include an i5 cpu i'll need new mobo and ram too and it is too expensive for now.
To my question, how bad will this CPU bottle neck a new HD5770 ?
(Also, with the new card i might have to drop the cpu OC and go back to 2.6GHz because my 480psu wont cut it.)
Thanks,
Nati.
