How severly will a Pentium 4 651 2mb cache bottleneck a 8800GTX 768mb?

Some factors to consider are the CPU is a @ 4.0GHz
I run @ high resolutions 1920x1200 Max Graphics (eg graphically demanding)

I could buy a E4300. Would definitly prefer not to.

Cheers

At that res i wouldnt have thought your Cpu would be that much of a bottleneck, not if you run games with all the bells and wistles on. That said some games are very Cpu dependant.
My 7800 gtx in sig at 1600x1200 was being held back by my [email protected] in games like LOMAC and MTW2.
