[QUOTE="ToddG, post: 282265, member: 23228"] The Core 2 Duo is the newer chip. From what I've seen, the processor itself is significantly faster (claims run from 25% to 35%+) but actual real world speed improvement is more in the 10% range. I doubt it will make a huge difference in your life today. It might impact how many years/months/weeks you can go before a piece of software comes out that requires you to have a faster computer.
