Question about performance and a potential need to overclock...

Last response: in CPUs

I'm gonna be getting a 1080p monitor and Starcraft 2, and was concerned about the performance I may get. I want to be able to play in 1080p on ultra, but don't think my CPU is capable of that. I have a Phenom 2 x4 955 BE, GTX 560TI, and 4GB RAM, and was wondering what kind of performance I could get and If I'd need to overclock my CPU. I'd rather not though since It's something I've never done.

Will I be able to play Starcraft 2 with those settings without an OC, and how much performance will I gain with an OC?

you eill get great performance in starcraft II. Its not a very demanding game. you wont need to overclock but overclocking will gain you a few more fps.

From what I've read Starcraft 2 is very CPU intensive though

It is more CPU intensive than GPU, but, you will get great performance the way your set up is. The only upgrade I would do is add more memory because I have heard in some 4v4 battles your RAM usage can be more than 4gb.
