Try q6600 heard It has good Multi-Tasking. But if you want a good Gaming Processor... You should use AMD Athlon 64 FX-57, Incredible performance with 2Gb of Ram... My cousin bought it for about 500$ with Ram combo (2Gb-2 X 1Gb) Cosair 667. But I guess you would be fine with q6600.

If you plan on keeping it for 3 years or so, then I would go with the Q6600. It wont be the best for the first several months or so, but once the games and apps are able to utilize quad-cores, then you will be glad you bought the Q6600 instead.
