What he said. I had to learn the hard way suffering 15 FPS all day. Even with a AMD Radeon HD 6320, I got major lag whereever I go. I'd normally blame my CPU, the AMD E-450 Dual core processor clocked @ 1.65 ghz but processor doesn't MAJORLY affect gaming. It's more of RAM and your GPU. Of course, any PC enthusiast (Dan?) can correct me.

cpu is a major part of gaming.  Some games use more cpu than gpu.  But if you have a shitty cpu and an expensive video card, your cpu will bottleneck your video card.  Which means it will hold back its performance.  You can play most games with 4 gb of ram and be fine

Probably what's happening to mine about the bottlenecking

Calvin is pretty much on the spot.

Even though CPUs need to distribute the work load, it doesn't have to be the top of the line CPU. A 2500k can handle any video card and any game, no problem.

For games now-a-days, you're really looking at being mostly dependent on the GPU. If the GPU can't render enough frames in a second, you start lagging like a bitch. RAM is also needed, and if you don't have enough of it, your games will crash. You can blame the game developers for making memory intensive maps that can scale up to 500mb (or more) per map...

Chill your man-tits. Also, if you don't understand English, don't critique it.
