Wow. Talk about pulling an answer out of... somewhere... :D

It depends on what you are running - if you are doing games that take advantage of the multi-core (like Supreme Commander), you will gain more than other games that dont, especially if there is a significant speed difference, you might be at the same level or even lose FPS.

There is no way to INTELLIGENTLY answer your question without more details as to what games you are talking about, what resoluition you are gaming at, and some comparison benchmarks you can look at.

5-10fps? :D

Ok, so "CPU heavy" games - does it matter at what resolution?
