Question Will this combination cause a bottleneck?

[yousefmahran]

Firstly i have a dell precision t3500 desktop that has a xeon l5640 processor and a gtx 650 1gb

So i want to upgrade my graphics card to a gtx 1050 ti 4gb

So my question is will my xeon l5640 cause a bottleneck to the gtx 1050 ti 4gb?

Upgrading parts does not reduce overall performance.

The new part nay not be allowed to reach its full potential, but it will be 'better' than the original.

I have a dell precision t3500 it has a xeon l5640 cpu and a gtx 650 1gb gpu

So the question is should I upgrade my graphics card to a gtx 1050 ti 4gb until i get a new PC build or should I save the money and wait until I get a newer modern budget build that has a newer hardware instead?

So will the upgrade be worth it+will it cause a bottleneck?

What is your budget and what titles do you want to play?

Your proposed upgrade, with only 4gb of vram supports very few of the current AAA titles, so you would end up basically where you started....but poorer.

Sorry to confirm what you already know!

Upgrading the gpu will not cause a "bottleneck" meaning it will not slow you down.
The question is; how much will things improve.
Try this simple test:
Run YOUR games, but lower your resolution and eye candy.
This makes the graphics card loaf a bit.
If your FPS increases, it indicates that your cpu is strong enough to drive a better graphics configuration.
If your FPS stays the same, you are likely more cpu limited.
