Motherboard being a bottleneck?

When I bought my system I didn't pay too much attention on mobo. Luckily I don't think I ended up with a crappy mb. Asus A7N8X-X ain't the best on the market but to my knowledge it ain't worst either. Anyway, I'm asking, like the title says, if my mb is a bottleneck compared to rest of my system? And if it is, what motherboard would you suggest that I should think about buying? Note that I'm not too interested about switching to a new mobo cause I would have to build up my system again. But if there's a big enough performance difference when switching to different mobo then I'm willing to consider about making the switch. Note also that I'll be soon getting a new graphics card (6800 GT 256Mb).
 
I doubt that the motherboard is bottlenecking your system enough that you'd notice. You won't see any performance difference by simply switching motherboards on the same platform. Save your money and put it toward the new video card you're getting. That's a more sensible upgrade.
