yeah tif... for office apps you won't really see the difference, but when you get into more intensive apps, like games, video editting, 3d rendering, shit like that you can see the difference when it'll shine through. Also the quads are more future proof... obviously

But yeah the core i7 920, which is like $230 bux, is INSANE.... individual quad cores, runs 2 threads per core, 8 total, automatic overclock called "turbo boost" supports tri channel ddr3, shits just retarded fast
