Help!!! Need to choose which cpu to keep??? C2D or QCD???

Hi, Its been a while since ive posted and my Rig has changed a few times since my last Post, LOL!!! The Miss's has just got pregnant :p so im gonna have to sell most of me office (to make a room for baby!!!) , and reduce from 2 PC's to 1. :( Now this is where the title comes in, i like overclocking and have always enjoyed it,:D so which would be a better alround CPU? :confused: The system is used mainly for encoding dvd's e.t.c Playing games and general web browsing?

1- E8400 Co stable @ 4.4ghz 1.47v

2- Q6600 G0 @3.89ghz 1.55v

Both Preform Well and they both have Weakness/Strong points. Raw Power or blistering Mhz's????


???? Other specs are 2 x 280gtx's sli, EVGA 780i, 8gb OCZ 1066mhz, Dell 24". Custom H2o. ??? would be intrested to hear other peoples thaughts. :):)

Thnx.

Thanks for ** ideas, ive been trying to make me mind up for the last two weeks. and for some reason the e8400 encodes faster than the quad, i think it might be the cpu speed producing more frames.
 
yes it is nice, mmm 4.4ghz, i have booted inton windows at 4.7ghz but not stable enough to run 3dmark :mad:

i dont know!!! so hard todecide!!!!! :confused::confused::confused::confused::confused:
