Hey i have
Q6600 at 2.6ghz
hd6850
4gb ddr2 ram
2x 2tb hdd
My mboard won't let me overclock to anything over 2.6ghz, it just bluescreens
Can a q6600 really feed a card better than the hd6850 without being a waste and just bottlenecking most of the extra power?
Would i be better off going for an i5 2500k/board etc or just getting an hd6950 or somthing? Unless you guys have any other ideas.
i know most games aren't very hard on the cpu but its only 2.6ghz and games that arn't well mulithreaded are already starting to feel it.
oh and its mostly for gaming at 1080p
