The performance between all of those will be similar. However, I would go for the athlon II x4. The four cores will help a lot in multi threaded apps and overall productivity. You shouldn't see much of a disparity, if any, in games due to the clock speed deficiency vs e7500. If you ever decide to overclock, the Athlon II has more headroom than Phenom I.

I would prefer Athlon II X4 of all those...
It is based on the newer PhenomII Architecture.

Phenom X4 are oldies...They run hot and don't OC well.

And no point of buying E7500 now.
(I've got an E7300 and know what i m saying)
If you want a dual core then get Phenom II x2 550.
