I'm going to be buying a dell notebook for school, the 17" e1705 (at least I think for right now). I have to go with a dell because the school gave me a $500 dell gift card, otherwise I might have gone with an HP just for asthetics alone... Anyway, I don't have a lot of money, but I'm looking to get the best of what I can with what I have.
I can choose between:
1GB Shared Dual Channel DDR2 SDRAM at 533MHz
1GB Shared Dual Channel DDR2 SDRAM at 667MHz
Is $50 worth the extra MHz?
And also:
Intel® Core™ 2 Duo T5200 (1.60GHz, 2MB L2 Cache, 533 MHz FSB)
Intel® Core™ 2 Duo T7200 (2.00GHz, 4MB L2 Cache, 667 MHz FSB)
Is this worth the extra $150?
If not on either the money I save may be able to get me the Ultrasharp LCD with Truelife display instead of the regular screen.
To help I'm going to be doing some gaming, but not an extreme amount.. I can't wait for Spore. I'm not sure what other games I would really buy right now. I am all for editing photo's and video however. Help is appreciated!
