just ran it  on my comp, Dual core E8400 cpu - 4 gig ddr2 ram - 2x 9800 GTX plus sli  at 1920 x 1080  v synch off and got consistent mid 30's most times dipping to mid 20's and up to high 40's

On highest setting? Thats pretty good no?

I mean 9800 GTX is very similar to the GTS250 which I used to have 2 years ago. That card was about ~40-50% of the performance of my current GTX470 in most games like Gears of War and RE5. So with 2 of them in SLI, logical thinking would indicate that you should be getting 70-80% performance compared to what I got...

yes nvidia renamed the 9800 gtx plus model to 250 and yep it is pretty good, but high  time for an upgrade me thinks I'm running a ASUS  M2N32 deluxe mobo any ideas

Hmm...I can't seem to find an M2N32 mobo that works with intel CPUs.

That CPU is still good though, I'd probably overclock it to like 3.6-3.8 ghz and slap on a big aftermarket cpu cooler and leave everything else as is...except the video card. For your setup I'd go GTX460 sli all the way :)
