the old office pc ran on a gt 610 with 2gb ram, a dual-core e2220 at 2.4ghz. adding a gt 1030 could help, but i’m not sure it would solve the bottleneck issue.

For older yet decent graphics cards, the GTX 750 Ti offers solid performance, particularly with its dual-core design. The GT 1030 consistently provides poor overall value and rarely comes at a reasonable cost (around $40). You might occasionally find a GTX 950 for about $50, though it needs a 6-pin PCIe connection and is aimed at GPUs without power cables.

The 6-pin connector should work with the GTX 750 Ti, allowing you to play games like CS GO smoothly. The system ran CS GO at 40-60 FPS beforehand.

The system will restrict the GPU's speed, not the reverse. The Core 2 Duo is now more than a decade past its prime. Even the top-performing Core 2 Duo chips can't overcome this limitation for a GT 1030.

You're likely correct.

I owned a dual "Core 2 Quad" Xeon workstation equipped with 3GHz CPUs, which restricted the performance of an RX 460. In certain games it slowed down to about half speed. For context, the RX 460 runs a bit slower than the 1050 Ti.
