As the title indicates, is my processor bottle-necking my GPU? And should I overclock my CPU or would upgrading to a Phenom 2 x6 1090T be more beneficial in terms of price/performance? I would like to get the most out of my GPU while playing the latest games. I sense its not performing at its full potential on my system for some reason based on the HD 6850 reviews I read.
Here are my system specs, just built this last December:
Processor: Phenom 2 x2 555 BE 3.2ghz unlocked to B55 Quad core @ 3.2ghz
Motherboard: Biostar TA890FXE
RAM: 8gb G.Skill Ripjaws 1600 @ 9-9-9-24-2T
GPU: Sapphire HD 6850
PSU: Raptor 500
Monitor: HP 2007w 1680x1050
Thanks!
