GPU first, then CPU later on. If you change the CPU, you'll also have to change the motherboard and RAM. GPUs affect game framerates more than CPUs for the same money spent.
Even though an non-i7 CPU can be shown to bottleneck the graphics, at that point it tends to be the difference between 80fps and 100fps. Not so that you'd notice. GPU is more important for going from unplayable to playable framerates.
What's your current CPU?
