It was almost a flat 25% increase in both benchmarks and FPS (used ATT's overlay to watch it in real time)---just from changing the FSB.

If you don't want to overclock the CPU, you might be able to cheat and adjust multipliers/bus speed combination to enhance the bus bandwidth a little. Might help some.
I'm not too familiar with overclocking. I wouldn't mind trying it though.
