I don't think there will be that much of a difference between the 2700 and the 3200. If you can get the 3200 for a really good price, then by all means get it, but otherwise I would go with the 2700.

Hi. Any increase in speed is better as long as cost, performance, compatability, and stability are in line. If you want it, there it is, go and get it.
