    Hello everyone,

    I was just wondering if upgrading my CPU from a T5550 to a T7300 is worth the cost.

    I've started recording HD videos and playback is pretty choppy. I'm hoping the upgrade will take care of it. Otherwise I'll be upgrading my desktop machine.

    Oh and my current specs are T5550, 4GB RAM, Geforce 8400, Vista Ultimate.

    Thanks in advance,
    Peter
