Neither my friend.

SAVE your money, Buy quad or duel core, go to the p.c's for different prices and pick one out of there. Honestly is worth it, Build an i system when they software and games have caught up. Thats my 2 cents anyway, BUT if you really wanna waste money to buy the newst things, Option 1

Core i7 is quad. :3 Duel core? Those must be nice to have in 1v1 PvP.
Okay, enough with the jokes.

TBH both are a waste of money, you can get the same performance much cheaper.

Yet another thread from Jawn. I am not sure why you don't go through this debate on a single thread.

option1 has fewer compatability issues. The monitor in both is not great, just a poor brand. And i think that you can do better pricewise. Although i suppose your canadian right but i'm pretty sure there's a newegg.ca?
