This is for a web/application server running, Windows 2003 Server Professional, IIS, MySQL, MSSQL 2005 Express, Plesk 8.5. The price is about the same.
Does anyone have an opinion on the Intel Dual Xeon Quad Core Clovertown versus the AMD Dual Core Dual Opteron? I'm assuming the Xeon is better. I recently put in an order for one, and I'm hoping I made the right decision (Yes I know it would have made more sense to ask before ordering but that's not how I roll) .
I'm thinking in changing my actual dedicated server, but I'm not sure if I will win with the change.
I use it for web hosting, but I am going to need a lot of Mysql use.
I also want to work with Flash Media Server or Red5, but I have the project stopped.
All are almost in the same price. What do you recommend me? I have never touched Linux and my Server is Windows 2003, do you recommend me to change to Linux?

If you have experience with large mysql databases please share your thoughts about a new MySQL server. If all other parameters are the same, what is better for a 6-10 GB MySQL db, dedicated server?
Dual XEON or Dual Opteron 2212 Dual Core Processor?
Also, any advice on suggested RAM, partitioning, OS, etc. are welcome. Current MySQL version used is 4.1.21.
We are hosting our software system which do calculation and file manipulation. Now we have Intel Core 2 Duo E6750 and would like to get Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600 to increase our system performance.
Also we have other choice, get Intel Xeon E5405 Harpertown 2.0GHz to replace two above.
I think it is better to have one server box because one box easy to manage than two. Also Harpertown is much faster than these two together.
I read that quad cores, really aren't that useful since, most applicaitons aren't multi-threaded...*has no idea what that means*
If i used a quad core for a few websites that get about 20k visitors per day, would it noticeably increase perfermance compared to just a regular dual core?
I run a large forum and I currently use dual Amd Opteron 248 with 2 gigs. I am looking am moving server to Canada and I am looking at Iweb and they don't offer opterons. Do any of these compare to a my opterons? I also plan on adding 2 more gigs of ram.
My options at Iweb Core2 Duo 2.4GHz (800MHz FSB) — Add $45.00 /month Core2 Duo 3.0GHz (1333MHz FSB) — Add $70.00 /month Core2 Quad 2.4GHz — Add $80.00 /month Core2 Quad 2.66GHz
About to pickup a server strictly for use with MySQL databases.
Right now there's zero price difference between the Intel 5110 dual core and the 5310 quad cores. Looking around a bit online, it seems like the quad core is of no benefit (or lesser performance) than the dualie. That sql cannot take advantage of it yet.
Is this accurate? If so, where do quad core CPU's shine at this point in time?
We are looking at a new configuration for some of our server setups. The Intel D946GZIS gets a lot of good reviews, but is it compatible with Quad Core CPUs (ie: X3210)?
Can anyone rate the performance of a Tyan Transport TX46 (B4985) with quad AMD Opteron 8220 Dual-Core 2.8 2x1MB cache compared to an Intel platform with 8 cores? How does Intel and AMD compare on an 8 core platform?
