Yeah, six cores is overkill for right now as I can't name any single programs that can use all 6 cores at once. However, it does help for the future AND it is rather helpful in multitasking.
The thing that I think has made the most difference is the SSD. I put my OS and commonly used programs (MS Office, Firefox, BF2, Steam) on the SSD, then my other stuff and music and video files on my RAID.
