So it's christmas and i thought it was time to upgrade my computer.
First my upgrade would look like this:
CPU: i5 3570K
GPU: GTX 670
MOBO: MSI Z77A-G41
But i really badly want the ipad mini so now my christmas upgrade looks like this:
GPU: Gtx 670
and the ipad mini.
And then the final result of my build will look like this:
CPU: AMD Athlon II X3 450 (3,2ghz triple core)
GPU: GTX 670
MOBO: Biostar ns68s3b
OCZ agility 3 60gb ssd
320gb 7200rpm hdd
4GB Ram
450W power supply
So, i think my cpu will bottleneck the gpu and the PCI-e x16 slot on my motherboard. I'm not sure.
So does anyone know if the cpu and my pci-e slot will bottleneck the gpu? if so how much of a loss in performance would i get?
I want to run far cry 3 maxed out at around 60fps, But the anti aliasing at like 4x.
My monitor resolution is 1680x1050.
And i would like to run the shaders mod on minecraft at a minimal framerate of 30fps.
And i still have one question, Do i need to get another power supply? does it have enough power to run my system? i have 3 120mm led fans though.
Thanks in advance!
