I have about a year old Barton. Great, great little chip.

Been at 11X 200 since day one, never a squeak, pip, etc.

But...A buddy of mine will buy it for 50 bucks.

I'm thinking of buying the Mobile 2500, which can be had at Newegg for 90 bucks.

Do I need more performance? NO.

But...it would be nice to have the headroom and a cooler running chip, since it's designed to run at 1.45 V Core.

I'm sure I could push it to 2.2 to 2.4 GHz levels, with 1.65 Vcore...
My current Barton wants 1.75 VCore to run at 2.2GHz..

Thoughts...anyone?

Voice of reason??
