Hi everyone!
I was wondering what the minimum CPU would be for a AMD HD 6950. Would an Athlon II X3 450 bottleneck the system?
Because of my budget I'm either looking at the Phenom II X4 955 BE coupled with a 6850 or 6870, or a Athlon II X3 450 coupled with a 6950.
I understand than the X3 is AM3 and I can later upgrade to the 955 or X6 series if I wanted. But I was just wondering what would happen with the X3 and 6950.
Thank you in advance.
