If all four cores in the new Xeon processor share a common L2 cache, it ought to provide slightly better rendering performance than two dual-core processors, each with their own L2 cache.

I have an HP workstation in my office that has two dual-core Xeons in it that I like quite a lot... I wish I could have bring it home with me!
