Best Option? Dual Xeon 2.4 / Xeon 3075 / Core2Duo E6750 / Quad Core X3210
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? ------------------------------------ Intel Xeon 3075 2x 2.66 GHz L2: 4 MB, FSB: 1333 MHz 4 GB DDR2 HD 2x 750 GB SATA2 RAID HARD 1 Ping: 60 ms ------------------------------------- Core2Duo E6750 2x 2.66 GHz L2: 4 MB, FSB: 1333 MHz 4 GB DDR2 HD 2x 750 GB SATA2 RAID HARD 1 Ping: 60 ms ------------------------------------- Dell R200 Quad Core X3210, 2.13GHz/2x4M 1066FSB Intel Quad Core 2.13GHz RAM 2GB 667MHz Dual Rank ECC (2X1GB) HD 250GB SATA (7,200rpm) Ping: 40 -------------------------------------- Now I have: •2 x Intel Xeon 2.40 Ghz Compaq Prol DL 360 G3 •Intel Xeon 2.40 Ghz •1 GB RAM (PC2100 Mhz ECC DDR SDRAM DIMM •HD 80 GB UATA •Cache 512 Ping: 40 ms

Intel Dual Xeon Quad Core Clovertown
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) .

1X Opteron Dual Core 2.4GHZ OR 2X Opteron Dual Core 2.0GHZ
I am going to buy a new server and I am unsure of which route to take. Basically the cost is identical for a Dell server with: 1 AMD Operton Dual Core 2.4Ghz OR 2 AMD Operton Dual Core 2.0Ghz What is the felling? Does the 4 cores out weight the extra 400 mhz per processor, but only having 2 cores? The server will be running: Windows 2003 Standard x32 Plesk 8.2 IIS 6.0 [ Application Pools Setup ] MySQL Microsft SQL Express 2005 [ONLY CAN USE 1 CPU/CORE] MailEnable Can my applications even handle/utilize four cores?

Platform For The Six-Core AMD Opteron
There always seems to be some Quality issues with the Nvidia chipsets, so I was looking at getting some feedback on boards if any of you have been using anything else yet. Normally I only use Tyan for server builds but the only alternative to Nvidia chipset is the Thunder h2000M (S3992-E). I'm looking for stability #1, performance #2 I'm looking for something non Nvidia but simular to the "TYAN S4989WG2NR Quad 1207(F)" as far as features.

2 X Core2Duo Vs. 1 X Quad Core Xeon
I have a Quad Core Xeon right now that I had set up with RAID 1. I'm getting horrible Disk I/O rates for this drive, 1.57MB/sec sequential write speeds. I'm having slowdowns that seem to be database related and more specifically I/O related. I run both my webserver (IIS/ASP) and my database (SQL SERVER 2000) on this Quad Core Xeon box with 4GB RAM. The disk I/O is killing me. I see that I have plenty of CPU cycles and plenty of free memory. At this point I'd sacrifice RAID 1 for better performance. Should I got with the Quad Core Xeon with 4GB RAM for this webserver/database server config or go with 2 Core2Duo servers with 2GB RAM each?

Intel Quad-Core Xeon Processors
I've spend some time today in reading about different Intel based processors. I'm learning fast (I didn't know too much about chips... untill now ) but there is something I still need to ask, since I didn't find an answer. So: Which Quad-Core Xeon processor (from low cost ones) do you like more? ... Kentsfield, Yorkfield, Clovertown, Clovertown" (low voltage), Harpertown, Harpertown (low voltage). From waht I saw I could guess that Clovertown is the most popular...?

Core 2 Duo Vs Dual Xeon
How would processor performace compare assuming the harddrives were the same and the amount of ram was the same? For example, how would a system with older dual xeon 2.4 or 2.8 cpus compare to Intel Core2 Duo E4300 socket 775, 2x 1.8Ghz/1M L2 system? I am guessing that the Intel Core2 Duo would win, but by how much? I am sure this is hard to compare since ram speeds are different as well, but hopefully someone can make an estimate.

What To Chose Intel Core 2 Quad+Intel Core 2 Duo Or Harpertown
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. What is your opinion?

Quad Core For Db Server
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?

Dual CPU Vs Dual Core
different opinions on dual cpus and dual core. But say: I have 2 servers, one with a dual CPU and another one with a single CPU but dual core. The CPUs have all the same specification (bus speed, cache, frequency, etc). Which one would perform better for web hosting (php, mysql)?

Dual Core Atoms
where is currently the "best" places to rent a dual core atom with about 2gb of ram, storage requirements are very low sub 50gb. I am interested in getting two of these in total in different dcs (US/EU only). Also something which I feel would be interesting is getting one up with a SSD. Has any one come across any where offering this? There seems to be alot of variation on prices directly in the atom niche, and then we you compare it to the same companies offering on their bigger brothers (quad core xyz) it makes things much more confusing. I have no interest in cheaper 5 year old hardware which might compare speed wise
