processor query

[vandit]

hey guys... I m planning to buy a laptop...mostly dell...
hence i visited their site and configured the inspiron 1525 lappy...
They gave me 4 options as below:


Note: Faster CPUs can take on increased workloads with more complex applications
Txxxx
2.16 GHz, 2MB Cache, 667 MHz FSBLabel (Core 2 Duo & Dell Wireless or no wireless)

T7250(+ rs 1370)
2.0GHz, 2MB Cache, 800 MHz FSBLabel (Core 2 Duo & Dell Wireless or no wireless)

Txxxx
2.1GHz, 3MB Cache, 800 MHz FSBLabel (Core 2 Duo & Dell Wireless or no wireless)
Label (Core 2 Duo & Dell Wireless or no wireless)


T5800(default selection)
2.0GHz, 2MB Cache, 800 MHz FSB

Txxxx
2.4GHz, 3MB Cache, 800 MHz FSBLabel (Core 2 Duo & Dell Wireless or no wireless)



So if T7250 and T5800 both have 2ghz speed and 2 mb cache and 800 mhz fsb...why is the price difference between them??(note from the abv that they charge rs 1370 extra for the T7250)

Hmm, the 2.1Ghz 3mb cache it 8100 and is the best buy in VFM, but the T8300 2.4Ghz is the best u can ever get. DOn't let the cache fool you. Only marginal improvements. Meanwhile and FSB of 667MHz and 800MHz cnahges a lot....
And GHz counts in too

go for this -> Txxxx
2.1GHz, 3MB Cache, 800 MHz FSBLabel
