[cite] Snow:[/cite]K one more question cause I'm getting too much off topic here.

I mainly use Logic 8 and Lightroom/Photoshop CS3 but want to play a game now and then (rarely these days) will I profit more from a Q6600 or E8400?
Thing is, I want my system noise free too like it is now. Every fan is running at lowest speed or 7volts so the stock or 3rd party cooler for the Quad has to run very low too and I noticed the Quads can get quite hotter then the dual cores. Any input on this bud?
Also, is it easy to run the Quad at 3 Ghz?

Alright now back to benchies, have fun lads.

I can only tell you what I know in theory quad = 95w
e8400=65w

What games support more than dual core?

e8400 3ghz 6mb cache £120 unboxed £140 boxed

I know which I would go for personally.
