I'm looking to upgrade my measly Radeon HD 6670 into something more robust in my system and after some good success when cashing out of D3, I can get either a 670/680 to replace it. However, I am curious whether the I3-2100 will bottleneck the GPU overall. I've heard people "saying it will" but they have had no proof to substantiate their claims. Just curious if it would bottleneck, thanks!
Spec:
- i3-2100
- Radeon HD 6670
- AsRock H61iCafe
- 8gb DDR3-1333 Crucial Ballistix
- CM 500w PSU (this was a cheap rig, don't hate on the crappy PSU which I will replace if necessary)
I'm not using an SSD at all atm so I don't know whether that will factor into any bottlenecks or not.
