Solved Does cpu does a big change in gaming (FPS)

[nfsworldrace]

im just curious, does cpu really matter when it comes to gaming? for example i have dual core processors a pentium D 3.0ghz and pentium E5200, both have same ram, mobo, gpu card.

does fps changes much or not. as far as i know fps depends massively on gpu card.

It literally depends on the game. A faster CPU will have a positive impact, but that can range from a little to a lot ( like Crysis3). The GPU is by far the biggest factor in fps.

yes and i know gpu is the biggest impact, but by how much fps increase in avg games do you think in pentium D & e5200

It depends on what games are you playing or what games you call "average games"? With the processors mentioned, modern games will not even start. Forget about the FPS.
