The new I7 2600k socket 1155 cpu has been proven to be just as good with multithreaded apps for ~1/3 the price.
Oh yeah I missed aastii's post.
Q6600? meh, it's OK. Slow stock clocks, and they run hot.
Even just getting an I5 2500k will put you at I7 975 performance (actually better because the I5 clocks so much higher on air) and runs VERY cool. When I had mine, 4.6ghz at 1.36v was doing 65c loaded on a megahalems

If he takes that route he's also looking at a new mobo and new ram too. .
Then again if he went with his original idea of the 980 he'd have to do the same...
but im keeping my processor its way more then good enuff
