General apps, the CPU will make the biggest difference. Gaming, the GPU will probably be most noticeable,

It will depend on the specific software whether it will be noticeable enough to be worth it. Older games like MOH won't really do much at all. Modern games like COD 2 will use a better GPU and a better CPU. Indeed the CPU, dual core may imporve gaming a bit as one core runs the game whilst the other runs antivirus teamspeak and stuff. How much that is noticeable compared to crisper graphics I dunno.
