CPU Limited?

Very seriously thinking of jumping on the 260 BE bandwagon having spent the evening at a mates house watching his new pc in action on a few new games.

My question is - with my current setup should I be looking at also getting a new CPU / ram? Will it become a limiting factor or should it still be ok?

E6600 @3GHz
ASUS P4B
2gig memory
8800GT 512mb

The game I mostly play is War and have no idea whether thats CPU or GPU limited, but I'd also love to try some of the new fps titles coming along.
I'm aware my motherboard uses are pretty old chipset and unlikely able to squeeze much more out of the CPU even if i wanted to.

Thanks for any pointers/.
 
I've just asked pretty much this same question in the CPU forum and the concencous is that the CPU is fine and there is no real point upgrading.

I'd definately go for some more ram, though.
