None of the listed CPUs looks like a major upgrade over a Q6600 though.

If your staying with LGA 775, the best CPU you can get is the QX9650. Mine is mildly overclocked to 3.5 Ghz & it can be pushed easily to 4 Ghz. Since you already have a quad core, the improvement may not be that noticeable.

Finding a new one could be difficult. I bought mine used - no regrets.
