I went from an AM2 5000+ @ 2.8 to a Q6600 @ 3.2 both with a 8800GTX and although I saw measurable increases in FPS @ 1920x1200 they wern't noticable at all in actual play in Vista or XP except for slightly faster level-loads, so if your only concern is gaming I would hang onto your cash for the moment.
