you may see some improvement but not in gaming ...about temperature drop is very unlikely can also depend on the type of cooler you use or air flow

if ur asking me, imho its not worth it at this moment .
Q6600 is still kicking on current games .
d only problem i can see is bottlenecking the graphic card .
present graphic card is too much to be handled by Q6600 .
unless u could go for 4.4ghz perhaps >.<"
doubt u would do that for daily usage ^^,

so my vote goes to NO NO !

just my 2 cents .

6 core may benefit you in the future in terms of gaming but i doubt that since bulldozer will be out next year. My guess is phenom ii x6 would end up like pentium D but that's just my point of view.
