    cpu bottleneck question

    Will a C2D E6550 bottleneck a GTX 260 @ 1680 x 1050? Case in point: I tried overclocking my video card and got 0 more fps. I'm wondering if my CPU is to blame or at that resolution there is no gains from the card. 136 FPS no oc, 136 full overclock.

    However the reason I'm asking because in the game I play Aion.. I get massive lag at raids in fortresses and I get under 15 fps and under 30 if I make everyone invisible but me.

    Is my cpu to blame?

    If you need my exact rig specs for reference, they are

    E6550 @ 2.93 ghz
    Gigabyte P35-DS3L
    4 x 1gb gskill ddr2 pc6400
    BFG GTX 260 stock/ 675:2304
    Samsung 225BW @ 1680 x 1050
