Borderlands 2 can not be maxed with playable FPS, aside from that every other game plays fine. Although not the FPS one would expect from a 580, at least its playable on all high. What I mean is FPS doesn't go over 100 all that much, doesn't dip below 30 much either (unless BF3 lots of things going on)
Save up, invest in a new platform. Q6600 was the 2500k of its day. Time to move on!

Hmmm. Borderlands 2 runs fine for me at 1080p, no issues with that game. BF3 can get a little choppy, like you said , if things are getting busy. My CPU isn't OC, nor can I unless I replace the stock HS/Fan. I thought about getting one to extend the life a little but I'm just going to upgrade in a few months. Need to get that NewEgg account balance down, kinda abused that thing

. Sorry about the run on paragraph. Typing without thinking about structure. Haven't posted on a forum in some time. Didn't realize people would get so upset.
