Another Revo thread, worth getting a R3600 ot R3700

[Schizophonic]

By common sense, the R3700 is the newest and in some places cheaper than the R3600!

Been looking to get one for my auntie for online tv streaming, watch some mkv content and general usage. Looked at some blogs online and they montioned the newer ION 2 on the R3700 is slower than the original ION on the R3600!

What gives?

Also the dual core on the R3700 is a bit faster than the single core R3600, no huge improvement.

What gives again?

by terms of comparing side by side the R3600 seems like the better purchase. Does anyone here have the R3700 and play back is fine with movies and online content?

I took the plunge and ordered the R3610, will put Windows on it tomorrow and test if it works fine with online streaming and etc.

So far so good, not too many problems. Installing windows via USB CD-Rom went smoothly. This thing is so quite. Tried streaming some 1080 content via youtube and it stuttered. I'm installing new drivers now so will restart soon.
