Hello,
System specs:
Intel Core2 Duo E8400 @ 3.00GHz
Asus PK5 Pro motherboard
4.0 Gigs of DDR2
ATI Radeon HD 4770
PC Power & Cooling 610 watt power supply
WD 320 Gig HD
XP SP3 32 bit
I built this system several years ago and never had a problem with it. An Ivy Bridge build is in the near future, however I want to keep this system around for a while longer and want to know the best upgrade path(s) for it.
The video card seems like the logical solution, but what card can be used that won’t bottleneck the processor?
I am not opposed to overclocking, but that will be a brand new endeavor.
Thanks in advance for any suggestions.
