For gaming, upgrade GPU or CPU?

Pretty much any game that is ported from the 360 to PC without taking into account the fact that your going from 3 cores to possibly 2 will run better with a quad. I played the Batman demo, and since it's a UE3 game, it'll probably perform better if I had a quad. Any UE3 game probably.

I agree, better long term investment.
