What is bottlenecking my PC?
I have just installed an Asus GeForce GTX 560Ti DirectCU II TOP 1024MB GDDR5 PCI-Express Graphics Card. I have also just upgraded my 480w PSU to an Antec 650w PSU. I have an Intel Core 2 Duo E8600 3.33Ghz (@4.10Ghz). 4Gb DDR2 RAM. My question is, is my CPU strong enough to play the games coming out today? I know my graphics card is more than good enough, I hope my CPU is good enough as that particular model LOVES to be OC'd, how much difference would a new MB and DDR3 RAM make? Hopefully you guys can help me decide on my next upgrade. I have just spent £450 on a 24" Wide 1080p HD monitor, that PSU and that graphics card. I am looking for a potential bottlenexk in the performance of my system and looking for advice as to what to upgrade next...

If the value of the i7 3000 was any indicator, the Ivy Bridge performance parts in March will be the Intel CPU to wait for. Ivy Bridge-E may very well stink.
