Hi,
I have an esxi server thats made up of
i7 970 6 core
48gb ram
p6x58d-e
10 hd's (8 in raid 10)(Its in raid 10 as need performance/redundancy rather than space)
What i'm needing to know is would I lose much performance switching to a 3820 being its only a quad core (its clocked higher though but esxi uses all cores very efficiently) as i'm replacing my gaming cpu with a 4820k and the board I bought to fit the 3820 would fit 64gb ram which would really help as i'm using all ram on the server and have to turn machines on/off all the time.
If I wouldnt lose too much in performance I could do it as my server is not as heavily hit on the cpu as it would be on other resources.
