Is the 4mb of cache worth it, what else is the difference? Both are quad core... This is for my desktop... would 2 of the QX6850 blow away a single QX9650?

Go with the 379$ quad cores wont over heat .. spread spectrum technology... 2 extreme i would say if your doing a shit load of video editing would press the heat barrier a lil above comfortable
