Are you using the old gpu you've mentioned, or this is a new cards ?

If yes then maybe there are some problems on your GPU cards, could be an artefact.
Try to pick a newer cards, not to worry, Core 2 Quad is a good old cpu, some of today's brand new card wont suffer hard from bottlenecking.

For example, I have a couple of Core 2 Quads lying around that run fine with AMD HD 7850 or R9 380!

Well, nope. I mean newer card in the same tier as GTX 750ti or even R7 360 should work fine.

You mean that 9800GT caused the blue dots and overheating before ?

Ye the 9800 did it all

well, your 9800GT is artefacting, meaning you can no longer use them.
