Hi all

What is faster, a single Xeon 3Ghz or a Pentium D 3Ghz to be used in a low
traffic online web server (with database)? I have a low budget at the
moment so the Pentium D is cheaper but less upgradable than a system that
can accept dual xeons.

Any thoughts?

This is the main difference between the Dell Poweredge SC430 and the Dell
SC1420 (Xeon)

Thanks
