Ok so I am running an overclocked AMD 4850e now and it's starting to really show it's age (thanks to my brother grabbing me a copy of BF BC2). So I am looking to go to a low end AMD quad. I have narrowed it down to either..

My question is, does that level 3 cache make much of a difference? From the benchmarks I've seen, doesn't look like it but I'd like some opinions.
I plan on doing the CPU, then end of year grab a AM3+ board and DDR3 or a new video card and do the mobo later. Thanks in advance
