alright im building a computer between a q6600 or a e6850, but i dont know which will turn out to be the best for me.

i am gonna use it for windows movie maker to make videos and desisgn also i do alot of gaming mostly battfield 2 and wow and that stuff, i am also getting a nvidia geforce 8800gts 640mb video card. im 15 and this computer should last me till im 18, i have watercooling so i can overclock but i dont plan to right away till i need to, which processor would be better for me in the end and is a q6600 2 e6600 and what is fsb 1066 q6600 and 1333fsb e6850? i plan on geting a q6600 but still deciding
 
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.

The Fx line of chips are single core. A Quad core would kill a FX :P
