Thank you very much indeed for all your answers.
I decided to go with:
- The included i7 wich is in all benchmarks, almost 3 times "faster" per
core than my current processor, and today I only have 2 cores, while I will
get 4.
- 16G RAM
- 60G SSD, plus 750G 7200rpm hard drive.
In fact, my current hard drive is only 5400 rpm, a bottleneck no doubt.
Thanks again!

*16G of RAM can sound a waste, but, it was not very expensive and also, I
need it to run some VM at the same time. I mean, I need the computer for my
work too!
