Hey guyz, i have a Phenom II x4 820 2.80ghz CPU. Il be buying an used ATI Radeon 5670 1 gig DDR5 version from my friend at 50% the retail cost as an upgrade from an integrated GPU. My following questions are:
1- Will my CPU be able to run the card with out hiccups?
2- is the performance difference between the 820 and the 955 BE huge, that is worth the 120$ upgrade
3- Will the 955 Bottleneck with a Radeon 6870 (That's the card im planning buy with in 2 months)
P.S Im running 8 gigs of cheap 1066 DDR3 RAM, which il upgrade to 1333 along with the CPU and GPU.
