well heres my problem, i want the e6850 because from what i can tell, it runs quicker in the benchmarks i see...
but at the same time ppl say that with future games goin the quad core rout, the q6600 will perform up to 50% better than the e6850...
90% of the time i play MMO's and i want the system i build to last me a good 4-5 years before i "need" to upgrade.
will there even be mmo's that use quad cores within the next few years? im not even sure if theres any that take advantage of dual cores... could anyone help me out with this?
btw i use windows xp pro (no idea if this matters)
im getting a GeForce 8800gtx
2 gig ddr2 ram
a 10krpm raptor HD
and heres a link to my Motherboard:

i also dont know **** about overclockin CPU's... i tried doin the GPU one cause its a lil easier but i dunno i just dont trust myself...
thx in advance for the help
