So I'm in need of some advice. I'm going to be getting a 15' MBP and I need some help figuring out if I should get the 2.0 GHz or 2.2 GHz.

Either option will work fine for my everyday tasks, but I do play World of Warcraft and I'm not sure which option will be best for this game.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks! :)

Remember that the difference between those two MacBook Pro models isn't just the processor speed...but you also get a larger hard drive & higher end graphics hardware with the 2.2ghz model.

Also remember that you cannot upgrade the cpu & gpu (you can upgrade ram & HD)...so buy the most you can. I don't think that the cpu speed or HD size is a big deal...but if you need the better graphics hardware...get the 2.2ghz model.

I always say buy the best that you can afford and feel comfortable with buying.
If you feel a niggle in the back of your mind saying "well if I buy the lower end model will I regret not getting the better one", then get the better one if you can afford it!
