Tests on identical systems with AMD mother boards has been shown that a dualproc cpu performs better than two separate processors. It's a memory bus thing. _____ From: thin-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:thin-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Steve Parr Sent: Thursday, February 16, 2006 4:21 PM To: 'thin@xxxxxxxxxxxxx' Subject: [THIN] How do dual core CPU's perform? Looking for just a brief answer not a long technical explanantion re: a single box with 1 dual core processor. Have an emergency requirement at a remote location to add a Citrix or TS box but only have available this one box with a single dual core proc. What can I expect performance wise running it as Citrix\TS box. Will it compare and scale as well as a similar rated system that has the standard 2 procs?
