Starcraft 2 - Is my Computer Enough

[TheCorp]

System:
CPU - E6600 Core 2 Duo @ 2.4ghz
4 gig ram
Radeon 4870

Trying to run everything at 1920x1200 but I seem to run into serious performance issues on anything other than Low/Medium which is somewhat disappointing because I thought my system would be able to handle SC2 on Ultra but I guess not?

Any ideas? Do I have to upgrade my CPU/Mobo? I am pretty sure this video card will cut it.

Thanks!

My best guess is it would be a cpu bottleneck since SC2 is fairly cpu heavy, try overclocking it to 2.8 or higher

My friend has a 5770 and can run it at ultra in 1080p with no skips so it shouldnt be your gpu

try running at a lower resolution

OC it to about 3ghz or so with stock volts.
I have a e5200 @2.93ghz
HD 3870
6gb ddr2

I think i could handle it well
