What kind of FPS should I expect with an 8600GT at 1920x1200 in TF2?

Strange combo, I suppose, but that's what I run.

Any ideas?

EDIT: Windows XP, E4300, 2GB

You should get decent framerates at close to high settings with AA off in GPU limited situations. If you're running that E4300 at stock, though, you won't have nearly enough CPU power in crowded situations. With the rig in my sig, I'm usually at around 50% GPU usage at 1680 with 8xAA, which means I'm heavily CPU limited. In places like the middle of 2fort in a 32 player map, I'll routinely drop below 20FPS.

The lowest. I don't need eye candy, I need performance.

I can OC it. I've done 2.4 before, I think.

It will do good at 12x10, but will probably be somewhat slow at 1920x1200, like 30-40 fps
