Okay, so I have whittled my choices for a new laptop for university down to two possible candidates: The ASUS F50SV-X4C or the HP HDX 16.0".

The thing that I'm not so sure about is the processors. The Asus laptop sports a Intel Core 2 T4200, and the HP has an Intel Core 2 Duo P7450. While the HP has a greater FSB speed, the Asus one has a higher frequency. Does FSB matter in everyday computing tasks such as gaming, using Photoshop, or 3DS Max? How much of a difference does the FSB speed make? Lastly, which one should I get?
