Well, if you're ok with spending 60% more money on 10% better performace then go ahead.

I'm personally not made of gold though, so I'd go for the better price/performance.


You don't have to be made of gold to sell your body.

But laptops have totally different CPUs. They remodel them for laptops and they lose a lot of power.

People say to me that a person being a helicopter is Impossible and I’m ****ing ******ed but I don’t care, I’m beautiful. I’m having a plastic surgeon install rotary blades, 30 mm cannons and AMG-114 Hellfire missiles on my body. From now on I want you guys to call me “Apache” and respect my right to kill from above and kill needlessly. If you can’t accept me you’re a heliphobe and need to check your vehicle privilege. Thank you for being so understanding." - Guuse

The chip architecture of the 2500k is different, too (if I'm not mistaken).

I think you're mistaken.

The 2500 and 2600 are pretty much the same cpu, just that 2600 has hyperthreading and overclocks ~5% better than 2500, maybe (5% really is NOTHING though..).

Also; Hyperthreading won't matter in most applications.

On that day, the tavern descended into an era of chaos and darkness, until the weekend passed and everyone forgot all about it. Amen. Book of SMOrc, Verse 20, Chapter 4." - Feam T
