You'll be CPU-limited, but you'll most likely still see a nice performance increase moving from (I'm assuming you mean) nvidia 6600GT to an HD6870.

Always try the cheapest upgrade path first, and see if it gets you where you want to be. So possibly try the 6870, then if you're still not happy with the performance go with a mobo/cpu/ram upgrade.
