*** Like others confirmed, you're much better off with a Giga upgrade. Giga
is the only one allowing you to overclock and keep their guarantee. There're
Giga 1,25 models guaranteed upto 1,4 or 1,6GHz depending on your hardware.
Unless you do a lot of FCP or Photoshop, you won't notice much gain from a
dual.

The 800Mhz upgarde isn't worth the trouble, seeing the price of the 1,25Ghz.
