Looking for advice,
I am currently running a Dell XPS 630i system with Q6600 processor and 9800 GT graphics card. I am currently playing Diablo 3 and BF3 on the lowest settings which is far from my ideal settings. I run a 1080p monitor that is the max resolution I typically play at.
I would like a card that can run those games at 1080p preferably with almost all settings on high. I have been looking at the Nvidia 670 and 680 series. If I upgrade to the 670/680, will those games be limited by my older processor in such as way I will see a big change in performance or just a few FPS? I may look at upgrading the computer as a whole later, but am desiring a quick fix for my gaming solution now if possible.
Thanks in advance,
