iMac 21.5" Mid 2011 CPU Upgrade?

[xpertxp]

I have seen many many forums posted all over the internet about different CPUs and compatibility with this particular machine. Some say to the i7 2600S and other say the i7 2600. Anyone have a clear answer as to which one I should be upgrading too?

I currently have the stock i5 in there.

Thanks!

The 2600S but do not expect too much of an improvement as there is a bare 10% difference in Bench Tests. The 2600 is for 27" models. Check all CPU performances outn here:
