I am building my own pc though dell and need some help with the processor choice i mainly will be encoding dvds and blue rays here is the setup

PROCESSORS Intel® Core™ i7-960 processor(8MB L3 Cache, 3.2GHz) or i7-920 processor(8MB L3 Cache, 2.66GHz)

OPERATING SYSTEM Genuine Windows® 7 Home Premium, 64bit, English

MEMORY 9GB DDR3 SDRAM at 1066MHz - 6 DIMMs

HARD DRIVE 1TB 7200 RPM SATA Hard Drive

VIDEO CARD ATI Radeon HD 5450 1GB DDR3

OPTICAL DRIVE Dual Drives: Blu-ray Disc (BD) Burner (Writes to DVD/CD/BD) and DVD+/-RW[/SIZE]


The price difference is about 500$ is it worth it to upgrade also i dont plan on overclocking it.

Any suggestion on upgrades would be helpful

Thanks
