I'm building a new computer for gaming and was wondering how much I'd benefit from the 6600 over the 6400. Most people would say take the extra 100 bucks and spend on better graphics card. Money aside how much boost will the extra cache really give me for gaming? Is there a chance in the future the need for the bigger cache will be greater?
I'm planning on midly overclocking whichever one I get (shooting for 400 fsb on 6400, and as good as I can get if I go 6600 which probably won't be up that high). Does fsb mean more in gaming than overall ghz?
My current computer is a p4 maxed out at 1 gig ram so I'm pretty much buying everything new.
