I am currently trying to decide between the X2 3800+ and the 3700+ San Diego.
The 3700+ will run me around $320 Canadian, the X2 3800+ probably around $400-410 Canadian.
The main differences I am seeing are the 3700+ has 1mb of l2 cache, where the X2 3800+ has 512kb l2cache per core. The 3700+ is 2.2ghz whereas the X2 3800+ is 2.4.
How big of a performance difference will I see between the two chips?
