Default Which is more worth it?

Hey everyone,

In the very near future, i would like to upgrade my CPU because the one i have really sucks A$$. At my local retailer there is the Pentium D 935 for 125$ Cad and the Core 2 E6600 for 306$ Cad.

I was calculating it all and if i buy the Pentium D, i will have enough money left over to buy some 2gb of DDR2-800 to replace the 533mhz that i have now.

Suggestions appreciated

dont replace your ram, if you already got 2gb... the speedup between 533 and 800 is not that huge!
