Last message on previous page: If your budget is 60.00 to 130.00 more than what you can get a Q6600 for and your motherboard supports a 1333mhz fsb then I agree. If your strappend to the 200.00 price point then the Q6600 is the sweet spot...
The Q6600 is worth it to me just for reason that COD4 uses all 4 cores. IMO thats the best game out there ATM.
To reiterate, the OP said he was broke, then hes talking about getting the 9800 GTX and everyone is talking about expensive parts for him to use and he hasnt posted in the last 50 posts.
A good debate doesnt need a silly OP.

Yeah COD4 is the very best game out there..but..the whats great about COD4 is that it runs extremely well on high settings on lower end systems too... believe it or not, i played COD4 (on high settings WITHOUT any glitches) on this rig:
Then i played it with my new rig(in sig). Then i played it with the q6600 with the same setup. Whether or not it uses all four cores or 1 core...even maxed out, you wil not, repeat NOT notice ANY change in during gameplay with a dual core or quad core.
