Anyhow does anybody have any idea what performance increase I can expect?
Currently my FPS with GWX 3.0 hovers around 21.

And also does having a dual or quad core have any benifits as I know that some sims (IL2) only run on one core.
I wonder where did your gf found to buy AMD Athlon 64 3400+ for socket 754 since I believe it's been long gone out of the market ?

in short: Dual cpu will deffinetly be better in performance and speed than single core, but quad core does not neceserilly means it's more faster than dual
