E5400 will be faster clocked @3.5Ghz, E7500 can OC as well, so get E7500 and go 3.5Ghz.

Unless I am missing something obvious!

ahhh ok i see but since i need a budget cpu maybe i will go to the E5400 .... but i have another question last night i try to oc my sister pc we have a same mobo but her processor is core 2 duo 2.5ghz i dont know what kind of E model is that ..... so i went to bios and i look for cpu host frequency but the problem is i cant highlight the cpu host frequency what does it mean?? ... my mobo is not allowing me to oc my processor ..or is there something i should do like unlocking the filter of my bios etc. what do you think guys????





thats all thanks ^_^
