Is it my GPU bottleneck ?
yea your gpu is bottlenecking your cpu performance something like gtx 750 ti or r7 260x would be nice balanced
Will this CPU (Intel core 2 quad) bottleneck my GPU?
It shouldn"t Q8300 is pretty strong CPU.
I can run this processor with 2GB of RAM but as soon as I put the extra 2GB (total 4GB) I get the memory error code. (1 short beep 1 long beep)
Any ideas?
Maybe a faulty ram stick?
Is your motherboard Foxconn?
