BOTTLENECK: How to determine?

[mE_bytes]

---

guys and gays.,
I'm facing a dilemma of which of my hardware is a bottleneck and how to determine one.
I'm planing to slowly upgrade.

CPU - AMD Phenom 2 X4 b55 @ 4.0GHz
GPU - Nvidia GTX480 1.5GB 384bit
RAM - Kingston HyperX 8GB (2*4GB) 1600MHz

try running Windows index experience.

i think the processor is the weakest link out of those 3.. i might be wrong though.

wala man guru. you are running 4ghz on your phenom 2 x4.

[gaspar_73]

the way i look at it,your procie scores 7.4 whereas vc around 7.8 and memory around 7.7 on WEI...

WEI Score:
Processor: 7.5
Ram: 7.5
Graphics: 7.9
Gaming Graphics: 7.9

^having that scores concludes that my Processor needs an upgrade?
cause when I will revert the x4 b55 to x2 555 @ 3.2GHz., the Processor and RAM scores will go down to 6.++ only.

Wala manay bottleneck imo system bro...

95% of games are GPU Limited... fight pa kaayo ang imong CPU for gaming.

ayaw lang ug hinayx2 upgrade... diretso nalang jud ug new system since the GTX480 is still a beast of a card (equal sa GTX570 which is still kicking ass)

my mistake,GTX460 man diay to ang 7.8 rating...kombate pa kaau na imo system migo....pundo lang sa na imo money...
