i7 with such an old GPU you are losing your performance don't care about the fastest memory it would be similar as 1600mhz. spend money on a decent card.

bought G-Skill 16GB (4x4GB) DDR3 2133MHz RipjawsZ £115 from ebuyer , which graphic card do u recommend?

I would recommend the GTX 670 as a proportional option to the listed components.

Otherwise the IB's iGPU probably in leagues with the 8800 GTX.

for best performance i'd go with gtx 680, otherwise 670 is amazing even for future.
