Hi guys, i have a question, i just got some really good deals. i got a HP Z400 for 40 Euros, it has a Xeon W3550 , 18GB DDR3 1333mhz ram, 250gb ssd, 160gb HDD.

and i also got a 30 Euros GTX 760 from MSI, 2GB DDR5. my question is is the xeon gonna bottleneck the 760? i also got a 660ti just in case it does.

what do you guys think i should do?

the total cost ist. 70 Euros. which is 75 bucks US. really good deals.

Well you seem to already have the card why don't you try it out? Depending on what you play with it and what the settings are either CPU or GPU will always bottleneck the other.

I see, well I don't quite understand why you would downgrade the GPU when the CPU bottlenecks the faster card. You could just turn up the details and be more GPU bound again.

there will be a bottleneck but if you're just shooting for 60fps 1080p you should be fine
