again ... I consider buying a new box for work. |

|
3 |
currently I am still quite happy with my core2duo E6600 with 8 gigs of |
4 |
ram, running ~amd64 ... running fine. |

|
6 |
but I remember the huge step back then from the pentium 4 ... |

|
8 |
Will it be the same when I go for a core i5? |

|

I use that box for virtualization as well (vmware and kvm), so maybe it |
11 |
would also help to not only change cpu but also add 2 cores (going |
12 |
quadcore). |

|
14 |
I just want to hit the sweet spot if that's possible. |

And I'd like to hear any pros and cons if you would like to share. |
