If you go the AMD route I highly recommend you look into the 8320. It's the same chip, just a lower frequency.

No it's not a bottleneck for the GPU you are just more CPU bound in relation to games that rely heavily on the cpu.

Your performance should be quite close to the Q6600 @ 3.0GHz likely a little less due to the lack of cache.
However a new CPU is a good Idea unless you can keep going with the overclock.
What motherboard do you have?
