I have an AMD Phenom II x4 955 3.2ghz Black Edition.Will i see the diference in speed if i get a x6 3.2ghz will it be faster or is the same thing?.Btw i dont care about the video encoding time cause i dont encode video i just whant speed.
You just need a crossover cable.
I find that deleting system32 makes my computer go far faster

I usually open my computer, right click C: and hit reformat to delete all those useless extras.
Things I sometimes play...
"What do you want to be when you grow up?"
"I want to be a unicorn!"
"Awww, why's that?"........
"So I can stab people with my face."

I believe I found your problem.

I must say I enjoyed the witty replies.
On to your question. If you are not using any cpu heavy tasks, then you will not see any difference in speeds.
You have not specified what you are using your computer for, but I am guessing it is probably playing games and surfing. In that case, current generation games are mostly more dependant on graphics cards, and surfing will not tax any modern processor in the slightest.
I would advise to keep your current processor. If it isn't fast enough right now, you may want to specify what itis you are using it for. Overclocking may be a better solution given your hardware. You would most likely want a third party HSF then though...

So you're asking if a 6-core 3.2Ghz CPU will be faster than a 4-core 3.2Ghz CPU?
Only if you have applications that can utilize the two extra cores, which not all can (especially games). Primarily, you probably would see large speed increases on things like video encoding or 3D rendering, at least right now.

Yes, it will be faster. The speed increase will only be noticeable situationally.
If you run windows 7 64 bit, the Operating system itself is multi threaded so you would see a performance increase across the board regardless of application you are running simply due to the operating system working more efficiently. With the hexacore with hyperthreading CPU's, your bottleneck ends up being the hard drive IO speed. A solid state drive helps there.

Or you could just purchase a quantum computer. I have it on good authority that they do in fact run Crysis.

Sometimes they do and don't run crysis at the same time!
