Pretty much all of them are going to, I had a Q6600 oced to 3.7Ghz with a HD4850, bought a FX-8320 and noticed a nice boost overall (around 50% fps increase) while still using my HD4850. Still, should be playable with your CPU lowering quality here and there until you get enough to upgrade your pc.

Not unless you overclock the quad or it is natively faster than the E5400 2.7GHz, but either way, these chips are good overclockers.

My E5400 is overclocked to 3.6Ghz by upping the cpu voltage to 1.35v and setting FSB to 266x13.5 on a cheap G41 motherboard and good cooling.

Dude better watch out if you overclock your cpu in a wrong place theres a chance that your cpu will be toasted and burn
