[QUOTE="Algus, post: 1639680, member: 319021"] Answer is obviously the second one as others have said. If you're looking at a system for just office work and web browsing or whatever best to save your money though. For me the second one would be a no brainer because I like to play games so I'd get plenty of use out of that extra juice. If you're using professional applications besides office programs, you'll enjoy the benefits of the second one as well. If you're a power user, even if its just for home office tasks, i.e. you have music playing, video in a tab, tons of tabs, etc. you will probably like the second one. i5 is a very good CPU. Sometimes I think we Mac users forget it because while it is low end for us, it is midrange to high end in the Windows world! [/QUOTE]
