New server, replace 2 x Athlon MP's

[3dcandy]

Right all,
Time to upgrade my homeserver, it's chugging a bit.
What does a nice x2 3800+ sound like to replace 2 x Athlon MP1600's???
Pair it with 2 gig ram, and I reckon it would be great, I have an S939 AGP mobo already...

And, then, on the same line, I could replace the other system with something along the lines of a PCI-E setup....

mmmmm - would the x2 be much better, or would a proper dually setup be better?

Hehehe
Well, it's noisy because of the fans, the spec is ok, but I do a lot of video processing and it's getting a bit sllooowwww.
BAsically, I can probably get a better performance from a single x2, just wondered if anyone agreed/disagreed??

Exactly...that's my point....
Ok, I'm gonna go for it...

cheers
