E8500 vs. E6870

[ViPeR.Ja]

is it really worth it to upgrade from the E6870 to the E8500?

Unless you have a specific need for that kind of firepower, I would hold onto your money or upgrade another component.

agreed.

the motto is "upgrade BIG"
if i didnt know better i'd say upgrade the GPU, BUT its sort of obvious you have what you want.
throw some of that cash in the bank or maybe go watercooling if it's burning a hole in your pocket :D
