Will an 8800 GTX bottleneck my CPU?

I have a 500W PSU
Asrock 4CoreDual VSTA
e6300 (will overclock to 2.1 GHZ)
1 gig Corsair XMS2 DDR2675



Besides the fact my motherboard only supports PCIEx4, how much of a bottleneck will my system be to the GTX?

Which GPU will my computer use fully?

Bad news pci-ex4 starts to bottleneck at a 7800gtx/1800xt.
Theres a review somewhere on Anandtech where a 6800ultra on 8xagp was beggining to pull away from a 6800ultra at pci-e 4x
