My buddy is looking to upgrade his computer to play Diablo 3 and WOW on high settings. He is currently running the following:
Athlon X2 7750 2.7Ghz
6GB RAM
Nvidia GT 520 (I believe 1GB DDR3)
He only has enough money to upgrade one part. My suggestion was to upgrade the video card to a GTX 550Ti. I play neither of those games but assume they are both more GPU-dependent than CPU. If he sticks with the current processor, will it bottleneck his system even with the GTX 550Ti, or should they both run fine?
Thanks for the input. I don't want to give him bad advice.
