The 4670 isn't that great for high end gaming though, so if you're trying to run recent games maxed out, the 4670 probably won't give you enough juice to pull it off.
I'm running an AMD Athlon 5000+ with 4GB of RAM and a GTX 260 and my CPU is bottlenecking my computer, but that's because it's an old dual core.
I can't see your CPU bottlenecking performance, the RAM or graphics card are more likely culprits.How is my cpu bottlenecking my 4670?AMD processors are slow. Right now Intel processors DOMINATE AMD. Your Phenom 9500 is about the same speed as a midrange Intel Core 2 Duo (that's an Intel DUAL core that's as fast as your AMD QUAD core).How is my cpu bottlenecking my 4670?crank that quad up to 3.0-3.2ghz.......bottleneck should be gone....amd quads are slow compared to intel....your quad at 2.5 isn't keeping up with the vid card....even though that card is not really high end....you can oc your ram to, but it really does not give a huge performance boost.....so you need more performance out of the quad........scott
