Server CPU options?

[Vans]

could do with some help here.

CPU for a poweredge 840.

Upgrade options are an Intel X3230 2.66GHz / 2x4MB 1066FSB

or a

Dual Core Xeon 3070, 2.66GHz / 2MB 1066FSB processor

Both are priced the same. Surely the Quad is better?

Also, I dont want to pay stupid Dell prices but have only found a Xeon X3220 2.4GHz (1066MHz).

I take it that this would be ok.

It runs everything from Exchange, file sharing, Sharepoint, AD, print sharing etc
