I think he means, if the future i7 comes with at least 2.0GHz each core, will it be suitable for gaming?

you mean overclock by yourself or by the turbo boost?

well, buy when you need it, the waiting game will never end.....

Core i7-600M – 32nm Arrandale, dual core wit HTT, 2.66GHz, 4MB L3 cache, 2500MHz DMI, Turbo @ 3.20GHz, GPU @ 766MHz, 35W TDP

Shouldn't it Turbo @ 3.33GHz ?

Uninstalled bloatware?
Try disable the startup apps ...

If possible, change the mcafee to other antivirus like Avast or Avira...

Why need to disable Windows Update? Unless yours not ori?

Basically on power consumption and cpu performance?

CULV SU7300 TDP is 10W and atom N450 is 5.5W, even atom N280 is 2.5W what you say?
For the D525, its TDP is 13W, which usually fit inside the nettop....
The other main reason is atom usually paired with GMA 950/500/3150 which is weaker than the GMA 4500MHD paired with CULV..

SU4100/SU7300 still better
and also Asus UL20A in MY now should be using SU2300...

Don't think there is any plan for Asus for 12'' with Core-i UM..

Well, those are the replacement for the old CULV
The latest by now is Acer 1830TZ with Pentium U5400...

Still not much review about it...

Main problem, where the hell is the X920BE...

Nope.

Depends on the notebook ?

It is low-end chip...

couple ghz...

Basically 2nd generation of Core i....

For the i5, yes...
But for the i7 Quad, its quite a lot....

back to depends your usage...
most likely insignificant for just browsing and such..
