E6600 bottlenecking 8800gts 512?
I've just got my 8800gts 512mb and noticed that it's not performing that much better than my previous card. I decided to try overclocking the card, but I didn't get any decent results. So I overclocked my E6600 to 3.0Ghz just for the hell of it and noticed a significant increase in the card's performance.
I realize that I kinda answered my own question here, but did anyone else had something like this and how much more should I(if I should) overclock my CPU to get rid of the bottleneck? I am kinda afraid of overclocking the CPU over 3Ghz, since I have stock cooling.
Sorry if this is a dumb question, but I am bit of a newbie in all this.
