Hey, OC your CPU to 3.0 and you'll see the difference.I seen this many times.New card will just bottleneck more than 8800GT so OC your CPU if you want more fpss.

I read a lot for other video cards and hd4850 sounds nice. Its rival to 9800gtx. I want advice-change the gt with that hd4850 or not?
35-40 fps?my 3870 easily got 35-50fps on grid with 8xAA at that resolution,so i am thinking its something else than the card.
try to oc your cpu to around 2.8-3 as guys before me said,it might be bottlenecking the card.
