I5-480m significant difference to i5-460m?

[e_t_d]

Hi,

I'm wondering if there is any real-world difference between the i5-480m and the i5-460m? I'm looking at 3 options on a laptop:

i5-460m with radeon HD5650 = basic model
i5-460m with radeon HD6550 = extra $100 on basic
i5-480m with radeon HD6550 = extra $170 on basic

From what I've read, there is very little difference between the HD5650 and the HD6550, certainly not enough to warrant another $100 with the same CPU in my opinion.

So if there is little difference between the 460m and the 480m I might as well get the basic model (and spend the rest on a nice SSD!)

Opinions welcome

I believe the only difference between those CPUs is a single multiplier increase. Meaning the only thing you gain with the 480m is 130mhz.

That's about a 5% difference, not quite worth it IMO.
