Intel 915gav mobo
2.5Gb DDR1 Ram (400mhz,in dual channel mode)
Xfx Radeon HD 4650 1Gb DDR2
500GB Sata 3gbps Hdd
Now the thing is recently i m getting a 2nd hand rig's(2 years old) components at a very mere price,& i will replace(mentioned below) them in my old pc ^^^
Core2duo E7500 (2.93GHz,3MB L2,1066FSB)
Asus P5KPL-AM/PS mobo
2GB DDR2 Ram at 800Mhz(1 stick,will buy another stick soon & make it dual channel)
The question is will the gfx card will bottleneck the cpu or cpu will bottlneck the gfx card???& if the ans is the 1st one then which will be the best gfx card should i take to complinent with the cpu & game at 1440x900(for future)? Btw now I game at 1024x768 res.
