Hey guys, i was wondering if an upgrade from a e6600 to an e8500 would be worth the cost.
I currently have : e6600 / 2GB RAM / 8800GTS 640MB / MSI Platinium P965 / X-FI Xtreme music.
This rig is about a year old , and i was thinking to get a e8500 as an upgrade (just to keep my rig 'up to date' ).
I know there are better Graphics cards in the world , but my ol' 8800GTS is stil doing its job.
I mainly use this rig for gaming on a 22" Samsung Syncmaster.
I'm not (yet) considering to buy a Quad Core CPU, coz i dont think i need it wright now. --Maybe next year .
So ,will i gain something with an 8500 ??
PS: i'm not into extreme OC, i'm running my e6600 @ 2.66 GHZ , and was thinking to run a 8500 @ 3.4 GHZ.
Cheers.
