If you have the money, get a E2200 along with the 3850. It would be a great upgrade, and your CPU would not be bottlenecking your Graphics Card anymore.

went from P4 2.6 ghz to C2D 2.4Ghz ... man, preformance boost was freaking unbelievable. Even single core operations run tons faster on the C2D.

So i want the same improvement for you with the new system not just a new overpriced AGP card that wont even help.
