RE: CPU question
The main issue with a top-line CPU is the huge gulf between processing speed and memory speed. Even with the fastest DDR2, the clock speed difference can be as over 2GHz.
To get the best CPU performance for the system, look at the L1, L2 and L3 cache sizes. Go for the largest in all three you can.
