Some numbers thrown around on Core i7 is that it will produce around a 30% improvement over Penryn.No one is comparing it to AMD since they have slumped in the corner at the high end processor party, ...

If you are going Core i7, you are going DDR3. That 4Gig is going to set you back about $300. Doubling that is doubling the price. I will go with the first 4Gig and upgrade to another 4Gig when the pri ...
