Hi

From http://www.dabs.com/products/intel-core-2-quad-q8300-2-50ghz-lga775-fsb1333-4mb-retai-695D.html

To this http://www.dabs.com/products/intel-core-2-quad-q9650-s775-3ghz-12mb-1333fsb-56ZB.html

Or wait until PC starts to struggle on applications and games. Runs fine at the moment games no trouble application no probs just woudnt mind a faster CPU just is it worth the upgrade basically as in notice a fairly big improvement etc

What about RAM how much have you got? Can you not put some more in to speed it up a bit and keep your current cpu?

4GB DDR2 Corsair XMS2 800mhz got them clocked up abit I could fit another 4GB in but im only on a 32bit operating system (windows 7) Which can see about 2.75GB I think

2.75? Surely you mean 3.75?

I wouldn't bother upgrading unless you're doing something stupidly intensive; like 3D rendering.
