Right, got some christmas money burning a hole in my pocket and wanted to do a bit of upgrading on my rig and was unsure what would reap the best performance rewards for the cash, current thoughts are swapping out my Q6600 for a Q9650 or maybe getting a HD 5870...would i see any big leaps forward in performance or should i spend my cash in other areas?
Current spec:

Asus P5Q Pro Turbo
Q6600 @ 3.0ghz
Titan Fenrir cooler
650W BeQuiet Modular PSU
8GB Corsair Quad2x DDR2-6400
1GB Sapphire HD4870 TOXIC
40gb Kingston SSD v series
x2 1tb Samsung F1
x3 Akasa 120mm LED fans
Xigmatek 140mm LED fan
Kaze Master Fan Controller
Antec 300 case (modded)

Cheers!:)
 
also try overclock your cpu even more. you have the system for it so its all free, and trust me there is quite a big difference when you start getting 3.2 and up
