I realize the actual difference in cost of the processors isn't anywhere close to that but I just haven't seen the deals reflect only that difference in cost, otherwise I'd be all over doing that. I think a lot of places are including video cards much better than I really need.
$300 is not alot extra to invest all things considered. You will be working on this thing day in day out for a while...I would spend the extra money to get the best possible computer you can that will last you longer. In the grand scheme of things $300 or even $500 is a small price if it will help you work better. I dropped probably nearly $2k on my computer, and got 2x 27inch screens too. It sucks down power like a motherfucker but it helps me work.
