I'd still get an i5 over an i3. They seem to be at the sweet spot for price performance and a few extra horsepower won't be regretted.

As much as I like SSDs (I'm on my second generation having retired my first one before Christmas) I still like RAMdisks for anything that does huge numbers of small writes (like a trading application). That just a preference though.

So I'd take your spec and go to an i5 and 16G of RAM. How much would that add?
