HDS7 Live v HSD9 Carbon

Bluebottle have a run out sale on the HDS9 Carbons for $1500 and I am running a HDS7 Live. I primarily use my 627 as my sounder and the HDS as my plotter but sometimed do have the 3-1 ducer installed for the HDS7 mostly for structure/side scan.

Would I get more joy out of the bigger screen or better to stick with the better processor in the HDS7?

Screen Resolution of the Carbon is average so pic qual is not as good.

 

I throw (mirror) my Live 7 to a 10" tablet sometimes (sidescan) for nearly the same resolution as the Carbon 9" - for a bigger screen.. 

I generally run the 587, charts (navionics app) on the tab and gauge page on the 7 all on full screens at once (While navigating).
