I currently have a Q6600 and a Striker Extreme 680i
the highest I've hit was 3.4Ghz but I could never get it stable and cool enough, I'm blaming the nforce mobo, or my Corsair 520W for this (and also my inexperience)

I was wondering, would a dual core with higher clocks make more of an impact in games such as Supreme Commander, Crysis etc. I saw some reviews on OCUK saying they could get their duals to 4ghz and beyond.
