-.- that's the reason I'am upgrading my cpu and now you tell me its worthless. I hope the C2Q does help at least a little bit in GT4. I will upgrade my graphics card later. Is a Geforce 9800 better? Nvidia Geforce 9800 Amazon or this
GTX 570 Amazon

will be better if you don't go past native resolution.
you'll probably encounter some slowdowns, though.
CPU : AMD Ryzen 7 3800X
