can this run directx 11 games?
and if i upgrade my ram to 8gb can i run gta v on lowest wih what fps?
thanks
its depend supports or not your Gpu Dx11 :) But This Cpu Will Be Weak For DX11 Games…and no you cant run GtaV…Sorry… Gta V Need Minimum Q6600 :)
Im running GTA V with it with around 30fps on lowest and 1024x768,4gb ram and hd5450 512mb.Also using ultra low graphics mod.
I have this CPU and I have been running games smoothly until now where I need a DirectX 11 version card. Should I go for GTX 650 Ti or HD 7790? Thank you!
This cpu will bottleneck a lot these GPU's…
I have this CPU.I overclocked it to 3.6 GHz and it is running perfectly.I got it in 2008(when it was realeased) and it is still a very nice GPU.It is a best value for money since i found it with 52$ price.It can handle games like NFS Rivals with high settings at 35-50 FPS (if you remove the 30 FPS lock).
I have this cpu in my bios it shows that my cpu is running @ 0.40ghz is that right?
Also cpu-z shows it running @ 1.5ghz
and some games run like crap like gta iv i get 15fps no matter what the settings are
Can someone help me out thanks
is my cpu being permanently underclocked?
Yes it is, try to fix it with the bios settings and if this does not work,search in the internet ( i already did but didnt find anything) :/.If nothing of these works i am sorry but you have to upgrade :(
Well lucky me the motherboard died so so i got a new one. Now everything is fine
can I runt far cry 3 and BF3 with this and my GPU?
s u can
Yup. Check my blogs.
Im thinking of buying a new cpu,and i want to buy this one but im not sure if it will work.I want to play some newer games ( not an "PLAY ALL THE NEWEST GAMES ON ULTRA!!" type :P ) will it do good ? And does it bottleneck/get bottlenecked by the GPU or smth like that? Is it worth and upgrade pls answar ty :)
check my blogs :)
whats the fsb?
1066Mhz
Is this processor any good for gaming?
Well it can handle modern games with medium to high settings coupled up with you gpu at that resolution. But its better if you switch to an i3 or i5.
Well you have a good GPU :))
You can get this , which will be good enough, OR get a new i3/5/7 and a new motherboard as well…
It is rather decent, but as deviljin suggested, a more powerful CPU would come in handy, since your GTX 560 could be bottlenecked by this CPU, but even with this you should be good for gaming at 1024x768 :D
Thanks for agreeing Raystlyn :D
Thanks all of you! I appreciated your cooperation :)
Glad to help :D :) Happy New Year :)
Happy new year to you too buddy! :D
can i overclock this cpu at 4 cores ??? if i can not what can i do more ???
How do you mean to overclock this at four cores? You mean to unlock? No such a thing is not possible with this CPU.Some AMD 'quad' core have that feature.But you can OC it to 3.6 with no problems.
I've this processor, I'm gonna buy a new VGA, which vendor is better for Intel? NVidia or Radeon? and, what's the latest VGA should I buy that can play the game with best performance?
Both vendors r good enough for intel. U can buy any high ended vga. Wats ur budget?
My motherboard is DG41TY, my budget is about $100, so what's the best choice?
I think HD 7750 for $100-$110 and HD 7770 for $140-$160. those cards are best choice for budget tight
