Depends on your motherboard. The 8300 has a lower multiplier so it's going to take a board which can produce higher FSB

q6600 would be better
you can get 3.6ghz with 1600mhz fsb(which most mobos can do if not all)
with the q8300, with a multi of 7.5 you need 1920mhz fsb (which many mobos cant do)
and the q6600 has 8mb of cache compared to 4mb (or 6 dunno for sure) on the q8300
games love L2 cache
