I have an old d975xbx lying around and I was hoping to get it up and running with a few components.
The mobo is an older revision, so it supports only older dual-cores. My plan was to get:
-An E1400 CPU (I could get an e4700, but it is 100$ more...)
-An XFX Radeon HD 4870 1GB DDR5 PCI Express 2.0 Video Card
-4GB DDR2 667 ram
I am worried there will be severe CPU bottlenecking...what is the best GPU I can put in to max out the gaming performance I can pull out of this old mobo?
Thanks for the help in advance.
