I play Call of Duty 5:World at War a lot.
When you play the game the Maximum FPS is normally put to 125 so you're not needlessly overworking the computer.
On some maps, when I use 1024x1012 (I think it is) my FPS drops a bit though and makes the game run less smoothly.
I tried running the game at a lower resolution to improve the FPS but seem to be getting near identical FPS whatever resolution I play it at.
I'm assuming that means it's my CPU which is bottle necking my graphics card??
If it is I'm going to buy a Phenom II BE 965 to sort out the problem.
I was going to get the 125watt version as it's more economical but also should give me more headroom if I want to overclock.
Here's a link to the CPU I was going to get.

Do you think it's a good buy and is this version of the 965 the best one?
I'm pretty sure it will run on my motherboard but just to be sure here's a link to my current mobo.

Here's a list of my current setup.
AMD 6000+ @ 3.0 Ghz (stock)
4 GB's Kingston RAM
Radeon ATI 4850 512mb GFX
Western Digital 1TB Caviar Black HD
Western Digital 80GB old HD
Windows 7
Thanks a lot for any help.
