That all depends on one question... Are you going to be upgrading soon or want it to last a long time? When I mean soon I mean like 1-2 years. not a few months lol. If you arent then go quad.

If you aren't going to buy an aftermarket cooler and overclock, go for the e8500; it will perform better in games at stock speeds.
