While the 8800 will show some benefit with a faster processor, the FX you have will go nicely with with it. |

Unless I missed it, you haven't said whether or not your FX62 is overclocked, or what speed it is running if it is overclocked. A major reason for buying the FX chips was the unlocked multiplier and the ability to overclock them easily. At stock speeds there are already a number of AMD chips that run faster than the FX62.

yep... even a stock speed X2 3800+ is capable enough to let an 8800GT perform well. as indicated by an article THG did pairing an X2 3800+ with an 8800GTX (which coincidentally performs the same as an 8800GT for the most part). it was crippled, sure, but only to the extent that would be noticable in synthetics on the very high end of its fps, and not actual gameplay which wont really benefit at all one way or the other from fps that high (ie, many times the fps were either around or in excess of 100fps in that pairing, instead of even farther above 100fps... such as, can you actually see the difference between ~110fps and ~140fps?... no. and to that extent, even the current intel cpus were crippling the 8800 series gpu as well, but again, only on the high end of its fps just the same).
