Upgrade CPU (amd 955) or Graphics C (6950)?

[ssmacc]

Hello,

A friend of mine has a PC with a AMD 955 CPU and a 6950 (flashed to a 6970), he's going to upgrade and has about £180, would he be better getting a i5 and new mothboard or a new graphics card?

I guess i'm asking would a £180 graphics card be bottle necked by the CPU?

Any advice appreciated.

Sorry i realise i should have made a single post but if your friend has the right memory then you could get an Intel i5-4440 and an ASUS H81M-K for just under £180.

Ok it's not a 4690K but it is better than what he already has, if the memory he has is ok

This was the upgrade I had in mind, and then Graphics Card at a later date... I assume this is the best bet?
