Is my rig good enough? I seriously wonder, its a rig made in 2007 with a small revision when the GTX480 just came out. Its decent old tech and it stands tall in most modern day games. But I seem to have alot of slowdowns trying to emulate stuff. Stuttering sounds and slideshow graphics...

Specs:
Win 7 64bit
Intel Quad Q6600@2.40Ghz
GTX480
8G RAM
2x500GB HDD @ 7200rpm
Fatal1ty soundcard+M-Audio external soundcard.

I do often use two monitors, while playing games I switch one off since... obvious reasons.

Thanks and Hi everyone, I registered to ask this and let's hope I stay awhile and listen (see what I did there?)

It's a bit too slow. If you overclock your Q6600 to 3.2GHz you should be able to get decent performance in most games but heavier games like SMG2 will still give you trouble.
