I would honestly spend a little more and go for a 6790, 6850, GTX 550 Ti, or GTX 460 which will be under $150.

Why can't you overclock your Q6600? That thing has another 1 GHz in it waiting to come out! The Frostbite Engine of BF3 really benefits from an over 3GHz quad core CPU.

So I was looking into these cards more (specifically the GTX 460) and noticed they look HUGE. I have a HP Pavillion a6030 (pictured below), and I dont think there is room. Is there anywhere I can get actual measurements of these cards?
