2100+ to Mobile 2400/2500/2600 worth it?

I have my 2100+ oc'ed to 2.17 on my Shuttle AN35N ultra (Vantec aeroflow,
512 pc3200 ram). Would going to one of the mobile chips be much of a speed
difference (Realistically I mean, not just raw #'s. Will I notice a
difference when I'm online or playing a FPS?)

Also, are there any advantages to the 2600 over the 2500 and 2400? Also
2500 over 2400? Will one OC higher? Or work better with heat and voltage?
Thanks.

I presume you got your fsb @166x13? or have you got a unlocked 2100+?
If your looking for more rore FPS then you want to be looking at more
graphics power your processing power is already high.

A mobile Barton is faster than your current cpu thanks to the 512K of L2
cache and it is fairly easy to reach 2.4 - 2.5 GHz with its unlocked
multipel, but your current cpu is still fast enough for most games. You
will only have a noticable difference in really demanding games - FarCry
beeing a good example. But if you intend to play FarCry you should double
your ram before you buy a new cpu.

You can not, based on model, say if one mobile will OC better than another
- they are basically the same cpu, only labeled differently. A good
stepping is what matters. So pick the cheapest one and hope for a good
stepping. And make sure that the one you pick fits in a socket-A board (not
all mobile Bartons does).

Like which Mobile Barton wouldn't fit?

The ones with uPGA packaging as opposed to OPGA (standard-sized PGA). There
were some 35W uPGA chips floating around on newEgg which caused some
confusion (and returns) for a while. I don't know if they're still there or
not though. The OPNs look like AXMD2000GJQ4C, where the G signifies uPGA
(you want an A, B, D or F, and you DON'T want an E or G).
