AMD x6 1055t bottlneck?

ArmyWorm

Hey guys, I was wondering which card at the highest would start being bottlenecked with my CPU being at 3.4ghz OC. I currently have a 6950 2gb and experience no bottleneck, though I'm not getting the greatest performance from the newest gaming titles and less onwards. So I would like the know how high end I could go with video cards until I see a bottleneck, and would it be worth it to upgrade?

 

 

Thanks, ArmyWorm.

I don't really know how to answer your question, but yes you do need to upgrade that CPU. 

 

I would assume that you might experience some loss in performance with anything above a 770. 

Error: 410

280X/770 at the most.

+1 on this as I've said before way too many times my 1100T bottlenecked my GTX 770 Lightning. I would say anything below a 770 you should be fine.
