It depends on your resolution and the game. Basically, the higher your resolution/quality settings, the more demanding it is on your gfx card. Once you reach your card's max fps at a given quality setting, no matter how far you oc your cpu, you are not going to gain any fps.
Just made up numbers to give you an example:
Say you get 30fps in Crysis at 1920x1200. Then you overclock your cpu from 3.0 to 3.4ghz and you get 35fps. Your cpu was your bottleneck.
Then say you went from 3.4ghz to 4.0ghz and still got 35fps. Your gpu is your bottleneck.
At high res your gpu is almost always going to limit you, that's why I'm still on a E6600 and have upgraded my gfx card 3 times.
