Ive been wondering would it be worth me selling my Q6600 and buying a E8400?

All i do is play games, ive heard these things can clock up to 4.2GHz on air! ... like to see what i could get with my 120-eXtreme.

For pure gaming would the E8400(i would overclock to around 4GHz) be better for me or should i stick with the Q6600?
