Okay now most of you people are boasting a gtx card and an i7 proc... not me. i dont have the money for that yet... so I have a 520 gt and an amd athlon x2 250 I was thinking that the graphics in some places were sinking in fps so i decided to get a new graphics card and monitor in july... but then i looked at task manager and it says that my cpu is the one bottlenecking... now what can be taking up all my cpu i know its a lower end cpu but my specs are Skyrim: low setting, no AA, all settings low besides textures which are on high Cpu: 100% on both cores at 3.4ghz resolution: lower than my monitor, 1024 \ 768 Now i am getting a new graphs no doubt about it... maybe a gtx 570... im not planning on maxing the settings just playing the game... now do i NEED the new cpu or is there some way to dumb down the hit on my proc
