I have been considering getting the New Macbook, but what I am not sure about is the Mobile Process Chip -v- Intel Core i5.
Has anyone got a bench mark view on which is faster processor, between these two great Mac's.
The entry level Macbook starts at 1.1GHz dual-core Intel Core M processor (Turbo Boost up to 2.4GHz) with 4MB shared L3 cache
The new entry level Macbook Air 1.6GHz dual-core Intel Core i5 (Turbo Boost up to 2.7GHz) with 3MB shared L3 cache
Is there any real performance difference between the two other than 1.1 -v- 1.6GHZ or does the Core M Processor delivery better performance than the Intel Core i5.
Appreciate, thoughts, comment, benchmarking or just your instinct to help me with my decision.
Thank you.
