    Do the T7250 or T7500 really provide that significant of an improvement? How about when it comes to gaming?

    It depends what games. If you're planning on playing supreme commander, Crysis, Bioshock etc. then the T7250/T7500 might be worth the extra. Otherwise probaby not.

    The extra cache helps the higher-end C2Ds quite a bit, but as Moon Angel says; your choice of hardware really depends on what applications you want to run.
