I will deffinately take that in to consideration

Quad supported games are rare. People have said that Quads actually perform worse in gaming than Duals, as Quads are made more for multitasking than gaming.

E8400: is more energy conservative, runs cooler, 45nm, and has a higher FSB.

Overall, it's a great processor.
