AMD Athlon™ II X2 250 Processor

How much of a bottleneck would that 4 year old processor give on that 2GB 660?

I was thinking that a 6670 is just about as powerful a card you can get on that CPU without a bottleneck being prominent. Feedback?
 
Its hard to say, you will definitely see a bottleneck but its hard to say how much.

I personally would try that 7850 you have in your sig in that system, see how it performs to gauge the bottleneck since they are relatively close in terms of comparables.

Either way you are going to need a cpu upgrade since imo buying the 6670 is not worth the investment...Unless it suits your particular gaming needs.
