Database Cluster CPU choice.



Hi all,

We are considering hardware upgrade.Can SQL Server 2005 Enterprise and
Standard Edition fully take advantage of the Quad Core architecture ?. Quad
Core Intel Xeon X5355 is top of the range. Dual Core 5160 is another choice
worth considering. At the current prices,which one would be a more cost
effective choice.
