I say quad... 12mb l2 cache vs. 6mb, 4 cores at 2.66ghz vs. 2 at 3.0ghz, quad is more future proof than the dual, and most importantly the quad has more bang for the buck 79$/core on the quad and ~$120/core on the dual


This is just my opinion, I would like someone to show me why I shouldn't get a quad and why I should get a dual.
