CPU Pentium D 3.0Ghz

3GB DDR2-266 running at 215

Since my CPU is already bottlenecking the GPU wouldnt it be pointless to OC?

What GPU?

But basically, if your CPU is the bottleneck, OCing your GPU would have limited effect.

i forgot but the way to tell if you GPU is getting bottlenecked is if you put it on a lower resolution and you get the same FPS as a higher FPS.
