Bottleneck? Upgrades? Help! ;p

Here is my current setup -
fx6100 @ 3.5 w/hyper 212 coolermaster
MSI 970A-G46 AM3+
G.SKILL Sniper 1866 8gb
MSI R7950-3GD5/OC BE
Kingston HyperX120GB SSD
2 TB Seagate 7200rpm SATA
Thermaltake - TR2-600NL2NC PS
ASUS VG248QE 144hz Primary
PLANAR PLL2710W 27" Secondary

My main use is I game with TF2 and CS:GO. Don't care about Eyefinity, or newer games really, just want to get my constant FPS in these games at 1680x1050 up, which is about at 90 -115 under stress and 130 - 180 no real stress. Don't need tricked out settings either. I presume its my CPU that is making this setup slower. Not to mention my MB i read is notorious for issues with upgrading to a 125w CPU such as a 8350, and I know ideally i'd want a Vishera. So would a Fx-6300 be a worthy upgrade? So in summation, just want to grab an extra 20 to 40 fps out of this setup before i do any REAL upgrading. Appreciate the help! Thanks!

You are already getting those frame rates? they are extremely good. At those frame rates, there is no point in upgrading. You wont notice a difference. In any case, I wouldnt say your CPU bottlenecks your GPU. Your rig is fine.

So you don't think regardless of my results, that the fx6100 is making my GPU performance worse?

No I don't.
