is this the cpu being a bit to old or something or am i screwd? loking up i have almost the same specs as nits
srry for bad spelling typing w/e, im really sleepy atm
No matter how good your computer is, if your CPU is....crap. don't expect miracles But yeh your CPU is your bottleneck meaning its holding your computer (GPU) from doing anything because the CPU cant handle it, you shouldn't have this problem when you put that Q9450 in your rig

btw try clocking that p4 wanna see it burn to hell!
