So, I have an old work station with a q6600 in it currently. The plan is to upgrade it to a Q9650 and 8gb of DDR2 800mhz ECC. I was wondering if I should stick a GTX 750 ti in it or a 1050. Would the 9650 bottleneck the 1050 too badly?
maybe a little
Is the gtx 1050 a good match for the q9650 ?
buddy there will be bottleneck
i will recommend you a core i5 6400
good match, im pretty sure this quad core can handle it… better getting gtx 770 about same price but much better perfrmance, if u have enough watts for sure…
Depends on what game you play and what other components you have.
With at least PC2-6400 8GB RAM and some OC, games with high GPU requirements such as Witcher III and ROTTR are fine, while GTAV will be CPU bounded, though still playable.
Pentium E6500
Geforce G 100 graphic card
4GB DDR3 or 2
Can I run GTA 5?
Core 2 quad q9650 3Ghz
Ram 16GB (DDR3 1333Mhz)
Zotac GTX 1050TI OC edition 4GB
Seagate SSHD 2TB
windows 10 x64 Pro
can I ran Tekken 7 ?
u will run any cuttently availible games on medium/high settings with the system u wrote
you can run all games on 1920x1080p but some on low settings
My question is,what is the best gpu for intel core2quad q9650?
any kind above GTX 750 will fit with the cpu… mayby u will have little bottleneck with 80 series like GTX 780/980 and even though if u overclock it u will have no bottleneck…
but trust me… that cpu is decent in nowadays…
1050ti
Core 2 quad q9650 3 ghz
ram 8 gb ddr3
amd radeon hd 6790 1gb xfx edition
did i run battlefield 1
yep med-low settings 720p with 35/40 FPS :)
my friend got a q9400 and 4 gb ram gt 440 and ran it on low with 30 fps
Intel Pentium Dual Core E2220 2.4 GHz
3GB RAM (it's DDR2, will be later upgrading to 8GB or maybe 4)
Radeon 4890 2GB (Maybe I'm gonna upgrade it to a GTX 750 Ti)
Would the Core 2 Quad Q9650 be a good pair with the Radeon 4890?

I really like this processor, all what is left is upgrading my GPU!!!
is this compatible with my gpu?
It doesn't matter if your GPU is weak or not (bottleneck). You can install a Core 2 Quad, even when you have a weak GeForce 210 installed.
However, make sure that the socket (775) and TDP (95W) are supported by your motherboard.
I have a question. My Cpu's Temperature when idle is top 30 to low 40 but when on youtube on chrome it is about top 50-top 40. Is this bad?
i intend to use this processor for games like battlefield 4 so will my temperature be dangerously high or will it be ok?
dont worry bro u will be fine just get good heatfan and good gpu
no its normal dont worry
i need this cpu i dont know where i can find one
ebay or newegg
You Answered Him So Fast :P :D
Just buy an i3 or i5 CPU.
yes but just take the newer gen's cause this QuadCore chews older gen i5's like a charm cause i had one already and it proved me this :) just sayin'
