at least a Core 2 Quad Q6600

this is the supported cpu list

Agreed. Avoid dual cores, quad is the minimum you should look at, especially since Q6600s can be found really cheap these days.

Your motherboard also supports up to 8GB of memory, so that could also be on the upgrade list down the road...
