What should i upgrade in my system? I know I have major bottlenecks for my 4870x2. Not sure if sure rebuild on an i7 or just upgrade motherboard/CPU and call it a day. Im using this system primarily for gaming 90%.

Currently rig

g965-ds3 motherboard
E6600 @ 3.14ghz
4 gig DDR2 800
4870x2
corsair 520w psu
 
throw it in your friends system if he has a better proc
see if you see improvement
i don't really see you having a bottleneck;
try doing a resolution test

though i can agree the proc is the weakest link...it's really does not seem that weak.
 
e6600 is seriously holding back the power of that GPU if you run at higher resolutions man.
