CPU or Graphics upgrade?

Hey guys,

I currently have a E2200 @ 3.1 Ghz and an ATI 3870 graphics card.

I'm looking to get an FPS boost so I was wondering which would be more valuable. A CPU upgrade to a Q6600 or a graphics card upgrade to a ATI 5670? For some particular reason Quakelive does not run well on my system.

Ah crap, forgot to mention. I've got £80 to spend on an upgrade.

I'm just looking for something to boost the FPS a little. It's not holding a solid 125fps, it tends to drop to 80-100 in battle.
