well sorry but from Q6600 and i72500K or 2600K yes it's a huge jump !
Clock for clock i7's vs Q6600's are hardly mind blowing, infact clock for clock it is laughable... However, a jump from 4 cores to 8 would be a 100% increase on top of that you have the slight jump in clock for clock performance.
