    $60? Yes.

    The T7500 performs like the E4500

    oh nevermind, It's $270 for the T7500 and $360 for the T7700. Damn Dell ripping off people lol. Only if you feel like you need more.

    no i bought just the cpu.. so there is a 60$ difference in just the cpu itself. i paid 230$ for the t7500 retail and for 60$ more i can have the t7700 instead

    I'd recommend you save the $60 and stick with the T7500, unless you plan on doing CPU intensive tasks such as video encoding.

    But the T7700 increases your e-peen by 200MHz.
