How much better is the X3 Tri Core 720 compared to the X3 710?

The Amd Phenom 11 X3 720 Black Edition as an unlocked multiplier so it will be much easier to overclock and for the extra 10 pounds it will cost it will be a much weiser buy.
 
Nope, that was last week! :p

Still, even at full price the 720 seems to be well worth the extra few quid.

Well they seem be on "this week only" every other week :D

Agreed with vishy. If you're overclocking, get the 720. If not, it depends on the price difference. £10 is probably worth it. £35 probably isn't, I'd say you'd get more performance out of spending £35 extra on the GPU or something instead.

I know, I'm hoping they somehow stay that way until summer!

Just noticed the OP hasn't really said what he needs it for. No point spending that £35 on a better GPU if he's crunching numbers all day!
