my cpu is intel core2duo E7400 @ 2.80ghz and 4gb ddr2 ram. a member in this community told me that if i buy 6770 hd radeon 1gb ddr5, i will not be able to run crysis 2, max payne 3 on high setting. is this because of my cpu or gpu or ram?

YOU CAN PLAY THESE GAMES ON HIGH SETTINGS JUST UPGRADE YOUR RAM TO 4GB.... NOTHING TO DO MORE

It's partly a combination of all three. Mostly your video card won't be able to play Max Payne 3 or Crysis 2 at there best settings. However that system would give you good framerates at medium settings and it'd look pretty good.

For a little (well, really lot) more money you can upgrade to Radeon HD 7850 and you'd definitely get better framerates / better graphics, but you'd start to see you CPU bottleneck your video card.
 
I feel like you have asked this question before. Maybe it was someone else who runs an E7400.

The video card is not quick enough, and your processor is quite dated as well as your other specs.

You should be able to play on like medium or something.

Yes, it's outdated, but you will still be able to play those games on medium with that card. OC your CPU could help gain a few more FPS and help with bottlenecks of the GPU. OC your CPU and GPU could even allow you to play on high settings on a few games such as Fallout, Skyrim with low shadows and low AA and such.

No. Those games would not run on high on that system. Not with out a better video card and more RAM can you expect Deus EX or Crysis 2 to run on highest settings. If he had 4GB of RAM minimum, and that 5770 it would probably play most games on medium ish settings on most things at 1680 x 1050.
