Right now I have an Intel C2D E8400 overclocked to 4.0 GHz.
Most of my games play fine and are usually limited by the GPU (which is a GTX 285) but I also use emulators such as PCSX2 (PS2 emulator) which requires a whole lot of horsepower.
What would be a good upgrade chip? How much faster would it be?
(NOTE: I probably only need a dual-core and don't really see the need for a quad-core especially since almost all games only support at most two cores/threads).
Thanks!
