Anyone upgraded from an X2 4400 to a Q6600 ?

Was wondering if the upgrade was worth it, because I'm very tempted with the new Q6600s.

Thanks

Depends on what you use your computer for, also wouldnt you have to buy a new motherboard along with it?

Nice speed boost.

However new mobo and ram will be needed.

Hi guys,

Thanks for the responses. Yes I know I will need a new mobo and ram. If the speed boost will be noticable I don't see the money as an issue, but as the mhz is so comparable (extra cores aside) I guess I'd delay an upgrade.

I use the computer for gaming, programming, and internet surfing - in that order.
