Personally i would go Graphics card, CPU then SSD.
An SSD is not going to improve the game play just the loading times. I don't think a 660 card is going to bottleneck the x4 CPU to be fair( though someone else may prove me wrong) and will provide the most noticeable difference in quality.

my specs are
AMD PhenomII X6 1090tBE @4.2Ghz under water cooling
8GB corsair dominator ram
GTX 560ti overvolt and overclock under water cooling. custom W/B
asus M489gtb pro usb3 mobo
Vertex 4 256GB SSD
2x 1TB spinpoint samsung in raid 0

Hope i helped a fellow essex chap!!
and good luck

NP mate. PDT_Armataz_01_01

ahh. yeah an SSD will help you get in there early in the round. early enough to get vehicles before anyone else usually or into the second flag before enemys even there.

I edited the post.

On photobucket there is a code at the right side if you click the one marked as IMG it copies the code. Just above where you type here click the IMG tab and paste in the code and it will put the image in the post PDT_Armataz_01_12

Ohh you may have to delete [IMG] from each end of the code. It will show the image still but it will have IMG at each end PDT_Armataz_01_11
