Anyone here use an X230 with the quad-core mod? I'm looking into it and was wondering about the reliability and battery life compared to the stock i5-3320M.

I had the 3612QE with a 9 cell, maybe an hour or two off the usual battery life if you're not doing anything crazy. Would definitely recommend it over the 3615QE since it runs cooler!
