I want to purchase a Dell M1530, but I am struggling at the CPU choice at the moment.
I have not been following CPU close enough to really make a good decision on which to purchase. I am planning to use this laptop mostly for gaming when i bring it up to college. I am looking for the most bang for the buck. I've been told that getting the cheapest Core 2 Duo is enough, and the rest is almost equally powerful. But this was told to me when Core 2 Duo just came out last year.
Heres the selection and price difference:
I'm hoping someone can help me choose something that is justified by the price. And of course i know the one thats the most expensive is the best
