Right now an i7 2600k clocked to 4.5GHz and upwards coupled with a GTX 580 is pretty much the top end, because radeons have all sorts of problems and that CPU will be the fastest available.
addman is correct though - there's no point upgrading right now. tidying up the code and a generation or two of hardware will be what it takes to play coD with lots of planes/city scapes below.
For some kind of reference - I tried to max out one of the new quick missions last night - I had 116 'planes in the air - I wouldn't call it playable, but neither was it a complete slideshow. That was with max settings all round, except SSAO and epilepsy filter, at 1920x1200.
