    Hello.

    I bought a XFX 5850 Black editon gpu, but it seems that some games still lags a bit.
    like in Call of Duty 4, i maxed everthing, my fps was from 45-400.
    In Crysis i have 1680-1050 red, very high, no anti-alising. and the game did lag a bit.
    In Bad Company 2 i tried with 1920-1080 res, all set to high and Anti-Alising was a 4X and the game did lag.

    3Dmark Vantage scores:
    GPU: About 10000
    CPU: About 4500

    Here is my system specs:

    Windows 7 Ultimate - 64 Bit
    Intel Core 2 Duo E6550 @ 2.33 ghz
    2GB Buffalo DDR2 667 mhz
    XFX 5850 BE
    550W Antec True Power 2.0

    So i was wondering does my cpu bottleneck my gpu?

    yes i say it does cause a bottleneck, and ram wouldnt hurt either.
