Best upgrade CPU for Overclocking
I currently overclock my E6850 dual core to 3.5 but i am looking at upgrading the CPU if its worth it to push another couple of years out of the system before next major upgrade. My MB will only support up to QX6700 extreme, QX6800 extreme, QX6850 extreme or Q7700. I want to overclock and i know the best option is the QX6850 but what few are around can fetch silly money so assuming i cant get hold of a decent priced one which would be the next best option for overclocking from the other 3 to get an improvement over my E6850
Q6700, QX6700 or QX6800?
I mainly play games and can get any of the other 3 for under £100 so a cheap upgrade if i can expect some improvement from dual core to quad core.
