Re: A bit of a Dickey move
@Disko,
Having built computers, I have learned not to be dazzled by the marketing fluff but to try to find out which chip has the best balance of features with price for my needs. I have found through years sometimes the best is by Big Chipzilla at other times Little Chipzilla is best. The specs and architecture are rough guides to actual performance (more real cores, bigger cache, cache type, etc.) when the box is fired up.
Also, most chips are probably overkill for most users including office drones particularly when you get to beyond 2 cores. And the only reason for 2 cores is they allow more RAM to be installed.
