Cant see the point in going from a Q66000 to a AMD 955be.
if you can get the Q6600 upto 3GHZ then it will fly.

if your still wanting an upgrade, consider a Sandybridge 2120 - http://www.xbitlabs.com/articles/cpu/display/core-i3-2120-2100.html - with a H67 motherboard will be the same price.

had nothing but issues between my cpu and mobo and more hassle to find a decent second hand mobo for it. so may aswell upgrade.

cheers will look into it

Considering how many spec's you do a day it will be interesting to see how long you'd keep it up
