Hi all,
Need some advise here. I have a P965 mobo with an oc Q6600 @ 3.33ghz and would like to upgrade from a GTX 260 to a HD 5870. My mobo is PCi-E 1.0. How much will the board hamper the HD 5870? I really do not want to change the board and cpu if I can help it. Thanks in advance for all good advice!
