Of course it's Old Ben.
Therefore, when they're both in their "Force Primes" (meaning old farts) I'd say that Obi-Wan was more connected, and therefore my powerful in the force than count dooku.
Count Dooku have demonstrated higher Force mastery then that of Obi-Wan. During his duel against the Obi-Wan and Anakin on a ship in ROTS, he effortlessely lifted Obi-Wan and threw him away and then ripped a part of a walking platform and threw it on him. In other words, he actually clearly dominated him through the Force.
Then Dooku was also an exceptional swordsman and was a very dangerous foe for Obi-Wan even in a pure Light Saber dueling contest.
And Dooku was also more experienced. Hence Dooku was more powerful then Obi-Wan.
