Bottleneck GPU

[ashis_lakra]

Hi all,

My specs are : Core2Duo 2.53 GHZ, 2 GB 800 DDR2, MSI G31TM-P21 Motherboard.

I am trying to get MSI HD 5770 HawK edition for my PC at 7.5K, but HD 6850 is availabled at 9.7K and gives good edge over HD 5770. I am going to get a 24" Full HD monitor in next 2 week.

Will my proccy bottleneck HD 6850 GPU or HD 5770 ? Which GPU is the perfect balance with the processor ? Also, suggest best VFM monitor at 24" FULL HD monitor.

Please clear some doubts.

won't bottleneck but if possible overclock to 2.8Ghz on stock cooler. & do add 2Gb more ram.

@ ashis_lakra - one side question - what PSU do you have ??

 

[ashis_lakra]

i have ordered Corsair Cx400 from theitwares.com, and Rahul told me it can handle HD 6850 too

eagerly waiting for my package..

Is HD 6850 absolutely safe with Corsair CX400 ??

hey dudes, 85 views and only 2 replies ? Come on, i just need information.

With your current config cx400 can even handle a HD6870

BTW, congrats in advance

A lot of people dont know the answers so maybe thats why.

Also you are asking that question after ordering it already?

Due to the trend of current games, your dual-core CPU will be a bottleneck, and the stronger the GPU, more will be the bottleneck situations.

Higher resolutions tend to increase load on the GPU, thus making CPU bottleneck less of a possibility, but as I said, today's games.

You could do good upgrading to a SB dual, AMD quad, or just a 2nd hand LGA 775 Quad.
