Would a 6850 be bottlenecked by a Q8200 at 3.3GHZ?

Maybe, but my 6850 performs much better for me than the 4870 it replaced, on a E8400 at the stock 3.0 GHz. It also runs cooler and quieter.
 
1440x900 usually, sometimes the one just under it at 16:9
at that res yes it will be held back in some games but nothing too bad. at that res I would probably go with a gts450/5770 level of card if money is a concern at all.
