Guys
I have a holistic question as to how important CPU speed is for a PC for the applications I use. I always have 10-15 tabs open in my browser and another 5-10 windows open (word, pdf, office communicator, outlook, etc) - I only have two fingers and may only use 1-2 apps at a given point of time. I do use a lot of keyboard shortcuts
Occasionally, I will turn on my Vmware to run 1-2 guest machines but don't want this to be a priority since I'll be doing it maybe once a month
All the above points to a system which should have a lot of memory and not necessarily CPU. Is my analysis correct? Will I be missing much if I go with a G840/i3 vs an i7
Thanks!
