My husband and i are both students, so we'll be using the computer for homework, i'm not much of a gamer, however ii cannot live without my Sims (Sims 3 preordered YAY) and we have a lot of music like nearly 20GB of music in Itunes.
HELP PLEASE ! How will i do with this processor?
the performance difference will depends on what you do with the computer. unless your homework involves 3D modelling, video editing, heavy number crunching, or professional photo editing, content creation, or anything else extremely demanding, even the processor you got packs a lot more computing power than you need.
