Thanks for the tips, not sure if I want to spend that much on the CPU, because if I do I'll have to spend less than intended on my monitor.

Yeah, I was intending to buy a Q6600, it used to be on their site, but it appears they no longer stock it.

If you can get the Q6600 somewhere else, I'd suggest you take it
