The question is simple:

I have an 5600+ X2(Brisbane) OC'ed at 3,2 GHz and an MSI 8800 GT,and because i need extra horsepower im thinking of purchasing another 8800 GT,and i wonder if 8800 GT SLI will be badly bottlenecked by my CPU at 1920x1200

other specs:

MOBO:
K9N SLI Platinum(2x8 PCI-expres slots if i SLI)
2 gb ddr2 800 (i could easily buy another 2 gigs)
24" 1920x1200 monitor
750W Enermax toughpower PSU

Yes, but not likely at frame rates low enough to be an issue.

Agreed, there may be a slight hold back, but not enuf to worry about.
