System Specs

Interesting information, I've run other benchmarks though. Counter Strike Source's, FEAR's and they all have the same out come with my GPU at stock and overclocked. But if I bench is twice with my CPU at stock 1.83GHz and overclocked at 2.80GHz the difference is night and day. Isn't this a clear indication of CPU bottlenecking? Right now I'm deciding between the E6600 and E6700 I think. The only difference I can see is a 9x multiplier vs. a 10x, and a $100 price difference. The E6600 is $234, E6700 about $330, and the Q6600 $540. My instinct tells me to go with the E6600 and I'll get a good overclock out of that and save myself $100. But as always I'm curious what others here think.
