The best option is usually much more expensive, and doesn't provide the bang for the buck. However, 2.6 Gigawatts is quite a jump from 2.0. Curious, how much more $ is the jump to the T9500?

I'm sure there's a price jump from one to the other.

I can't find any benchmarks that compare/show the T7250 and T9500 and I'm wondering if given the fact that it won't be used for anything all that demanding, if it's worth the cost.
