@dipankar2007i

I believe my GPU is bottlenecked by my CPU(an old p4 519K at 3.06GHz)......
Again i would like 2 say dat i only aim 2 play most games at 30fps ......so ever i feel da need 2 change ma GFX card i might, bt now i've hardly used it long enuf bro!!!!!
 
Am a little confused here.. You say your motherboard is AM3 ready so basically it means that you already have a motherboard.. As such, it being an AMD processor compliant motherboard, you need to purchase an AMD CPU and not Intel (skeptical to say i know).. I too agree that you have a weak card for any of the modern day games (be it at 30 fps also)..

^You have a damm keyboard in front of you.Write ENGLISH WORDS IN THERE FULL FORM.This is not twitter that you write words in short form.If you think it is cool then you are a useless moran.
Agreed! :)

This is a proper tech forum and not hippie club! Please stop using endless punctuations. Just one is enough. And type in proper English makes it more readable and decent to look at!
