Considering I use Phenom II X4s (which everyone s**ts on for sucking compared to Intel) and don't run into any CPU usage problems with any game I own with an AMD HD 5770, your 9650 should do you well for quite a while longer. Team Fortress 2 (which I think is probably the biggest CPU rapist in my game library) stays at 60 FPS for me (VSYNC) on an X4 @ 3.6 (and even my original Phenom X4 does well at 2.75). Your Q9650 would probably get higher min/max framerates with the same video card, but both CPUs are still decent nonetheless.
