Games that use quads (that I know of):

Crysis
Call of Duty 4
GRID: Racedriver

Also i have read Supreme Commander does, but have no experience myself with it.
 
I wouldn't upgrade from a E6750 to a q6600 now, with all these great cpu's coming out soon... The q6600 is great and all but the E6750 isn't exactly a **** cpu either...

Wait for Intel/AMD to play there hands.
 
crysis isn't the only game to use all 4-cores ( it might even use 2 ) ..i wish people would stop being " oh lawds crysis it's teh amazing lawl lawl it greatest ting on earth!!!21212!!!@!eleven!!!! "

even if the game doesn't use all cores, the OS and other background programs will use those 2 cores which will let the game have 2 dedicated cores to itself....imo, get a quad-core unless you want to spend less than $150ish
