2.3 v 2.6 benchmarks?

[Mac.User]

I haven't seen any benchmarks between them. I'd like to see some before I decide.

Here they are:

Key processor names are Intel Core i7-4960HQ 2600 MHz (4 cores)

and Intel Core i7-4850HQ 2300 MHz (4 cores)

Ok so it looks like less than a 10% difference.

Thanks for your help.

No sweat.

I'm trying hard to justify dropping the extra $180 myself. I know it won't make much difference in real-world performance, and yet I fear my OCD will gnaw at me if I don't get the fastest available CPU! Terrible disease, this OCD...
