Default Upgrade My Q8200?

Is it worth upgrading to one of these CPUs?

E6300

E5200

My budget is only $100 on CPU..
If there are any better out there? any suggestions? 100 dollars only lol...

And im aiming for a decent GAMING computer..
i have no intentions to overclock anything.

E6300 would be the better choice if you wanted to upgrade. But thats just my two cents, has a faster CPU speed and FSB.

You do know that if you "upgrade" you'll be losing performance? Both only have 2MB of cache, your Q8200, if I'm correct since I last checked, has 4MB of cache, which is WAY more important than ghz.
