I want to be able to run new games at the highest settings for a few years from any new CPU I buy.
Should I go for a quad core (Core 2 Duo Extreme QX6700) or is that quad processor just meant for stuff like 3D rendering and would I be just as well off with something like the Duo E6700?
I plan to be using this alongside x2 GeForce 8800 Ultra's. I have about £2200 to spend on the whole system.
MOD: Please move to CPU section.
