Dual core does have it's merits, and so does dual proc. You can get the Opteron 270 for around 1000+ or two Opteron 246 for around 600+. The dual proc setup has its own dual channel mem interface, but dual core has four core potential on a dual socket MB. i dont think there will be a need for four cores for multi tasking, as software will not be optimized for multithread for at least a yr+. So which one would you chose Today?
